Ingredients
- 3 cups mixed bell peppers
- 1.5 cups water
- 1.5 cups apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Whole30 compliant salt
- 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 4 units garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon dill seed
- 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Wash the mixed bell peppers thoroughly and slice them into thin rings, discarding the seeds.
Step 2
Peel the garlic cloves and gently crush them using the flat side of a knife.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, apple cider vinegar, and Whole30 compliant salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to ensure the salt dissolves completely.
Step 4
Once the mixture begins to boil, add the whole black peppercorns, dill seed, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 6
Carefully pack the sliced bell peppers and crushed garlic cloves into sterilized glass jars, leaving about half an inch of space at the top.
Step 7
Pour the hot pickling liquid over the peppers in each jar, ensuring the peppers are fully submerged.
Step 8
Seal the jars tightly with lids and let them cool to room temperature.
Step 9
Once cooled, place the jars in the refrigerator and allow the peppers to pickle for at least 24 hours before consuming for optimal flavor.
