Pickled Radishes Recipe
Crispy, spicy, and super easy to make, Pickled Radishes come together in under 10 minutes of hands-on time. Put them in tacos, toast, sandwiches, or wraps; these give a zingy bite to them.
Servings: 10 people
Ingredients
- ½ pound radish 250 g
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 and ½ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 7-8 whole peppercorns
- 5-6 whole garlic cloves peeled
- 1 cup warm water
Instructions
- Wash radishes and remove any dirt on their surface. Discard the leaves and chop off ½ inch of the top and bottom. You can peel the radish using a vegetable peeler if you wish to. I like to keep the peel, as it gives the pickle a vibrant color.
- Slice the radishes into thin slices (1 mm) using a mandolin slicer or a knife. I like thin slices as they soak up the flavors well.
- Pack the radish slices in a clean glass jar. Set aside.
- In a measuring cup, combine red wine vinegar, sugar, salt, red pepper flakes, peppercorns, garlic cloves, and warm water.
- Stir to dissolve the sugar and salt.
- Pour this pickling mixture over your sliced radishes and let them sit for an hour.
- After an hour, cover the jar with a lid and store it in the fridge for up to a month.
