Making a veggie pickle doesn’t need to take all day. You can add spices (try cardamom or fennel) or change out veggies for daikon, cabbage, or even beetroots. Eating pickles helps you digest your meal. If spice isn’t for you, simply omit the chillies.
Our pickle is prepared in 30 mins and is the perfect accompaniment for Asian inspired baguettes, stir fries and rice dishes. It also tastes seriously delicious in toasted sandwiches and tacos (basically in everything!) Choose which veggie to go with, or triple the liquid to make a jar of each.
