How to Make Gingery Sweet Pickled Vegetables

  1. Combine vinegar, sugar, ginger, salt, and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar and salt are dissolved.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. While the pickling liquid simmers, wash and prepare your vegetables. Cut carrots, cauliflower, and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces. If using other vegetables, prepare similarly.
  4. Pack the prepared vegetables tightly into clean, sterilized jars, leaving about ½ inch of headspace.
  5. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the vegetables, ensuring they are fully submerged. Leave ½ inch of headspace.
  6. Remove any air bubbles by gently tapping the jars on the counter.
  7. Wipe the rims of the jars clean and seal tightly with lids.
  8. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time based on jar size and altitude – consult a canning guide for specifics).
  9. Remove jars from the water bath and let them cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
  10. Once completely cool, check the seals by pressing down on the center of each lid. If the lid doesn't flex, it's sealed properly.
  11. Store in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks before enjoying. The flavor will improve with age!
