Units
Scale
- 2-3 large carrots, sliced into sticks
- 2 tsp coriander seeds
- 2 tsp mustard seeds
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 1 tsp black pepper peppercorns
- 1/2 tsp Aleppo Pepper or red pepper flakes ( more if you would like it spicier)
- 2/3 cup boiling water
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp sugar, agave, or maple syrup
- 1 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Grab a clean and dry 4-cup jar or mason jar for which you have a tight fitting lid. We like to save the jars from olives, sauce, etc.
- Place carrots, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, fennel seeds, black pepper, and Aleppo pepper into the large glass jar. Make sure you press the carrots tightly into the jar, all the carrots should fit into a 4-cup jar.
- Mix boiling water, vinegar salt, and sugar until dissolved.
- Pour liquid into the carrots, if there's room for more water add more boiling water until it reaches ¼" from the rim. Close the lid tightly, turn it a few times, let it sit on the kitchen counter for an hour and then place the jar in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Adjust seasoning and spicy level to your liking.
- Add them to sandwiches, wraps, salads, tacos, and more!
