QUICK PICKLED CUCUMBER RECIPE



Quick Pickled Cucumber Recipe image

Crunchy, briny quick pickled cucumbers with garlic and dill. I like to add sliced green onions and some jalapenos, sliced or halved, for a little kick. These refrigerator pickles are easy to make and are ready to enjoy the next day. These pickles are savory and a bit more tangy, if you like your pickles on the sweet side, add sugar to the brine (see notes below).

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups vinegar (distilled white vinegar or white wine vinegar will work )
2 1/4 cup cold water
2 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
3 tablespoon mustard seed
3 tablespoon coriander seed
3 tablespoon peppercorn
2 bay leaves
1 1/4 lb Persian cucumbers or English cucumbers (sliced into 1/2-inch rounds )
4 green onions (trimmed and chopped (both white and green parts))
3 Jalapeno peppers (sliced into rounds (remove seeds for less heat))
6 garlic cloves (minced)
Few sprigs of fresh dill (to your liking)

Steps:

  • Prepare the cucumbers. (Optional) Place the sliced cucumbers and some ice cubes in a colander in the sink for 20 minutes or so (this helps give them better crunch). Drain completely and pat dry.
  • Make the Brine. In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, salt, mustard seed, coriander seed, peppercorn and bay leaves. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat and let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Pack cucumbers and vegetables in jars. Pack the cucumbers, green onions, jalapenos, garlic, and a few springs of dill in some wide-mouth jars (they should be packed tightly).
  • Add the brine to the jars. Ladle the brine into the jars to cover the cucumbers (use the back of a spoon to push the cucumbers down to submerge). Give the jars a couple of taps to release any air bubbles and allow the cukes to settle.
  • Cover tightly and refrigerate. Cover the jars tightly with their lids and refrigerate. For best results, allow the pickles a full night in the fridge before using, but you can enjoy them earlier if you like.

PICKLED JALAPEñOS



Pickled Jalapeños image

Ask any Mexican if they have pickled jalapeños in their pantry, and the answer is usually a resounding yes. More than a condiment, they are an absolute necessity. Incredibly versatile, they can be tucked into tacos, quesadillas and sandwiches, mixed into tuna salads or eggs for omelets, or served as garnishes, crowning nachos, hot dogs and pizzas. The tangy brine, which can be used to punch up any vinaigrette, tames the heat of the chiles. There are countless store-bought options - and people tend to be loyal to particular brands - but pickling your own is easy, and allows you to customize to taste, altering the vegetable ratios, herbs or sugar content. Inspired by fruit-based vinegars available in the Mexican countryside, this version combines white distilled vinegar with natural rice vinegar, adding a dose of sweetness.

Time 12h15m

Yield 6 to 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup vegetable oil
6 ounces white pearl onions (or trimmed spring onion bulbs)
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 pound whole jalapeños (stems intact)
1/2 pound medium carrots, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick on the diagonal
2 cups distilled white vinegar
1 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
5 dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
5 whole cloves, stems removed and discarded, rounded tops crushed between fingertips
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons kosher or sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large (12-inch) skillet or a heavy pot, heat the oil over medium-high until hot but not smoking. Add the onions and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until their outer layer begins to soften. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until it barely begins to turn golden. Incorporate the jalapeños and carrots, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring a couple times, until the jalapeño skins begin to slightly dull and wrinkle.
  • Stir in all remaining ingredients and simmer briskly for about 7 minutes, until the liquid reduces and the vegetables soften. Turn off the heat and let cool.
  • Transfer the pickled vegetables and their liquid into a container with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for at least 12 hours. (They will last for at least 1 month.)

  • Choose fresh, firm cucumbers and jalapenos for the best results.
