Ingredients

Servings
  • pounds asparagus about 40-45 medium spears, fresh
  • 3 garlic smashed, large cloves
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
  • 2 dill large sprigs, fresh
  • cups white vinegar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Trim the asparagus to fit into a 1-quart wide mouth jar, allowing for a half inch of headspace. Save the trimmed ends (discard the woody ends) for another use.
  2. Add asparagus, tips up, to the jar. Pack the spears in at the base as tightly as you can to secure them into place.
  3. Add garlic, peppercorns, mustard seeds, crushed red pepper flakes, and dill to the jar.
  4. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the vinegar, sugar, and salt. Bring mixture to a boil and whisk vigorously until sugar and salt dissolve. Immediately pour hot brine over the asparagus, to cover the tips.
  5. Let jar cool completely on the counter, then place lid on and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Pickled asparagus will be ready to eat in 24 hours, but will be even more deliciously pickled after about 3 days.
