Ingredients
- 4 garlic cloves
- 8 carrots cut into roughly 5” spears
- 4 sprigs of fresh thyme
- 1 seeded pithed, and thinly sliced Fresno pepper
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 ½ cups distilled vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
Instructions
- Place the garlic cloves to the bottom into 2 16 ounce clean and sterilized jars.
- Divide the cut carrots and place them into each jar along with 2 sprigs of thyme, and sliced peppers. See notes on stuffing.
- Next, add the water, vinegar, sugar, salt, and mustard seeds to a large pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. Make sure the salt and sugar are completely dissolved before removing it from the burner.
- Pour the brine over the carrots in the jar making sure to submerge them.
- Cool to room temperature before adding on the seal and lid and placing in the refrigerator. Wait 24 hours before eating them for the best flavor. See notes on shelf life.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make these pickled carrots up to 1 week ahead of time.
- How to Store: Place sealed in the jar with the lid in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 weeks. These will not freeze.
- For best flavor results, wait at least 24 hours before eating the pickled carrots. The longer you wait, the more intense in flavor they will get.
- Make sure your jars are completely clean and sterilized before using them.
- Depending on the size of your carrots, you may need more or less to fill the jars.
- When stuffing the jars with the carrots and peppers, it does not have to be perfect or look perfect. The goal is to get as many ingredients throughout the jar as possible.
- Sometimes when adding the brine to the top, a lot of the seeds and additional ingredients don’t make it from the pot, so be sure to scoop them up with a spoon and divide them amongst the jars.
