Ingredients
- 3 cups cauliflower 1" to 1½" in size, fresh; pieces
- ¼ cup yellow onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 2 large garlic halved, cloves
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns whole
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
- 1¼ cups apple cider vinegar (see Notes)
- 1¼ cups water
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt Morton brand
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- To a clean 1-quart jar, layer in ⅓ of the cauliflower, onion, bell pepper, garlic, peppercorns, mustard seeds, and red pepper flakes. Repeat with a second layer. Finish with a third layer.
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring vinegar, water, salt, and honey to a boil. Stir until salt dissolves. Pour hot mixture over cauliflower mixture in the jar, pressing down on the vegetables so the brine covers them completely - the veggies will shrink a bit, so press them in fairly firmly.
- Let cool on the counter to room temperature. Twist on a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Pickled flavor will increase the longer it sits. Store in fridge for up to 4 weeks.
Notes
- We like the flavor of apple cider vinegar best for this recipe. Just know that, the longer the cauliflower sits in the brine, that the cauliflower will not be as brilliant white. If you want the cauliflower to retain its white color, use white distilled vinegar, rice vinegar, etc.
