Ingredients
- 500 grams Radishes
- 180 milliliters Apple cider vinegar
- 180 milliliters Water
- 30 grams Honey
- 2 units Garlic cloves
- 10 grams Fresh dill
- 5 grams Mustard seeds
- 5 grams Black peppercorns
- 5 grams Salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing the radishes thoroughly and removing any leafy tops. Slice them into thin rounds, approximately 3mm thick, using a sharp knife or a mandolin for uniform slices.
Step 2
Peel and gently crush the garlic cloves without fully smashing them. This will help release their flavor during the pickling process.
Step 3
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, and honey. Stir the mixture over medium heat until the honey has fully dissolved. Do not bring to a boil.
Step 4
Add the salt, mustard seeds, and black peppercorns to the saucepan, and continue stirring for an additional 2 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and begin to let it cool slightly while you prepare the jar.
Step 6
In a clean, heat-proof jar, place the sliced radishes, crushed garlic cloves, and fresh dill sprigs.
Step 7
Pour the warm vinegar mixture over the radishes in the jar, ensuring that all radish slices are submerged under the liquid.
Step 8
Seal the jar tightly with a lid and give it a gentle shake to disperse the spices evenly.
Step 9
Allow the jar to cool to room temperature before refrigerating. The radishes will be ready to enjoy after at least 24 hours of refrigeration, although they taste even better after a few days as the flavors develop.
Step 10
Serve your heart-healthy pickled radishes as a snack, or add them to salads and dishes for a tangy crunch.
