Escabeche Style Quick Pickles
Rating (0 Rated)
You will crave these deceptively easy and incredibly tasty ‘quickles’ – they’re crunchy with just the right amount of zing. Don’t be alarmed if you notice the garlic turning blue in the pickling liquid – this is a harmless enzymatic reaction. You can toss the garlic after they’ve steeped.

Directions

1. Pack the cauliflower, carrots, onion, jalapeños and garlic into a quart-sized wide-mouth mason jar. Place the jar in the sink, since you’ll be pouring hot liquid into it soon.

2. In a medium saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, salt, sugar, oregano and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer over high heat, then carefully pour the hot vinegar mixture into the jar. You should have enough to completely submerge the vegetables (and maybe a little extra). Tuck the bay leaf into the side of the jar.

3. Let the pickles cool to room temperature (about 1 1/2 hours) before gently tapping the jar to remove air bubbles. The pickles should be pretty well pickled and ready to consume at this point. If you’re not eating them right away, securely fasten the lid and refrigerate for up to a month.
