Lemony Pickled Carrots Food

QUICK PICKLED CARROTS

Steps:

• Add carrots to a large mason jar or glass container. Set aside.
• To a small saucepan add distilled white vinegar, water, salt, and sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir to fully dissolve salt and sugar. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more salt or sugar to taste.
• Pour the brine over the carrots, ensuring they are fully submerged. If needed, add more vinegar or a little water to cover.
• Seal well and shake to combine. Then refrigerate for at least 1 hour. The flavors will deepen and intensify the longer it marinates. Best flavor is achieved after 24 hours.
• Will keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks (sometimes longer). Not freezer friendly.

PICKLED CARROTS WITH GARLIC & CUMIN

Steps:

• Peel 1kg carrots and cut into sticks or slices. Boil in generously salted water for 2 mins until just starting to soften, then drain.
• To make the pickling vinegar, put the whole spices in a medium saucepan. Toast over a low heat until they begin to smell aromatic. Add the dried chilli flakes last, as these can easily catch. Add the bay, turmeric and garlic cloves, pour in all of the vinegar and sugar, let it dissolve, and bring to a simmer.
• Pack the carrots into the jars, adding 1 tsp coarse crystal sea salt to each, cover with the hot vinegar and seal. Ready to eat in 2 weeks, or longer, if you like.
