Vietnamese Pickles
- 225 g carrots, julienned
- 225 g daikon radish, julienned
- 4 cups water, warm enough to dissolve the sugar
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons salt, or 1½ tablespoons sea salt.
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup distilled white vinegar / rice vinegar.
Method:
- Prep carrots and daikon, set aside.
- In a large pitcher or bowl, mix water, vinegar and salt until everything is dissolved and combined well.
- Place carrots and daikon in a clean sterile jar.
- Fill with vinegar mixture until carrots and daikon are completely covered in liquid.
- Cover jars and set in the refrigerator to pickle for at least overnight. Our ideal timing is to let the pickles sit for 3 days before eating. Pickles can last for about 3 weeks in the fridge.
