Quick Pickled Veggies
This quick pickled vegetable recipe is extremely versatile. It’s a nice touch to pair veggies that follow a color theme. . Here’s the final post in our beet series with Christiann Koepke! Here you’ll see a bright pink look with red onion, radish and beets. Alternatively, you can swap these veggies for a different set like cucumber and turnip. Just add some fresh dill within the last hour before serving. The addition of agave is optional pending your preference. It balances out the vinegar without using a traditional method of added white sugar.
Makes: 1 large or 2 medium sized jars
ingredients:
- 3 small - medium roasted beets, quartered lengthwise
- 2 bunches (about 12 ounces) of radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced with mandoline
- 1 large red onion, trimmed, thinly sliced
- 12 oz. (1 ½ cups) apple cider vinegar, organic
- 20 oz. (2 ½ cups) filtered water
- ½ Tbsp. coriander, whole
- ½ Tbsp. fennel seeds, whole
- ½ oz. (or half of 1 medium) lime, freshly juiced
- 1 tsp. pink peppercorns, whole
- ½ tsp. sea salt
- 1 Tbsp. agave (optional)
directions:
- Start by preparing roasted beets. Preheat oven to 425°F. Rinse beets. Cut off each end. Peel and quarter.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle very lightly with sea salt.
- Place in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until soft when pierced with a fork. Remove and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Gather all remaining ingredients. Add to a large bowl. Stir.
- Place ingredients in glass jar(s). Finish with placing beets in a jar carefully as a last step.
- Seal and cool in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before enjoying.
