Zubereitung von Evelyn's Pickled Okra
- Wash 1 pound of fresh okra thoroughly and trim the stem ends.
- In a large pot, combine 2 cups of white vinegar, 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of black peppercorns, 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
- Bring the brine to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Add the okra to the boiling brine and cook for 5 minutes.
- Carefully remove the okra with a slotted spoon and pack it into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
- Ladle the hot brine over the okra, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
- Remove air bubbles by running a non-metallic utensil along the sides of the jar.
- Wipe the jar rims clean, place lids and rings on the jars, and tighten fingertip tight.
- Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for precise instructions).
- Remove jars from the canner and let them cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal. Check seals after cooling completely.
- Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Enjoy your delicious homemade pickled okra!
