Ingredients

• 450 grams radishes
• 240 ml white vinegar
• 240 ml water
• 100 grams granulated sugar
• 15 grams salt
• 2 whole garlic cloves
• 5 grams red pepper flakes
• 5 grams peppercorns

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the radishes, then slice them thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline for even slices.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar and salt are completely dissolved.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the brine to cool slightly.

Step 4

Pack the sliced radishes into a clean, sterilized glass jar. For added flavor, add garlic cloves, red pepper flakes, and peppercorns between layers of radish slices.

Step 5

Pour the lukewarm brine over the radishes in the jar, ensuring that the radishes are fully submerged.

Step 6

Seal the jar with a lid and let it cool to room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator.

Step 7

Allow the radishes to pickle for at least 4 hours, but for best results, let them sit for 24 hours for flavors to fully develop.

Step 8

The pickled radishes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
