Quick Pickled Peppers
Description
This recipe calls for packing sliced peppers into clean pint jars along with minced garlic. A brine made by boiling white vinegar, rice vinegar, sugar, mustard seed, and celery seed is poured hot over the peppers, which are then sealed and cooled. The combination of two vinegars balances sharpness and mildness while the sugar softens acidity and the seeds add aromatic notes.
After resting cold for at least two days, the peppers develop a crisp texture and a lively, mellowed tang. These pickled peppers are excellent as condiments, additions to sandwiches, salads, or antipasto plates, lending bright acidity and a slight crunch.
Stored refrigerated, the pickled peppers remain good for up to two months, making them a convenient homemade preserved condiment to keep on hand beyond the quick soaking period.
