2 cups distilled white vinegar
2 cups white wine vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons kosher salt
8 bay leaves
8 garlic cloves, smashed
4 chiles de árbol
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds
1 pound baby or small red-skinned sweet potatoes, peeled or unpeeled, cut lengthwise into spears
1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed, halved
1 pound baby carrots, peeled, trimmed with 1/2" green tops still attached, halved lengthwise if more than 1" in diameter

Steps:

  • Mix first 11 ingredients and 8 cups water in a large pot. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar and salt dissolve.

These pickled crudités are a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a few extra carrots and celery in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

The pickled crudités were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

The pickled crudités were a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll use less vinegar next time.
