Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups apple cider vinegar
2 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
2 1/4 teaspoons brown sugar
2 cloves garlic
1 hot pepper, such as habanero
1 cinnamon stick
1 fresh bay leaf
1 tablespoon cumin seed
1 tablespoon coriander seed
1 tablespoon fennel seed
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 pound carrots, peeled and sliced into thin rounds

Steps:

  • Bring the vinegar, 3/4 cup water, salt, and brown sugar to a boil in a medium stainless steel saucepan. Stir, dissolving the salt and sugar.
  • Heat a 1-quart jar: Fill it with hot water and let it sit a couple minutes before pouring out. (The heat will prevent shattering when you pour in the boiling brine.) Add garlic, hot pepper, and spices.
  • Pack the jars tightly with carrots. Pour in hot brine. Cover and let cool overnight before eating. Spiced carrots can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
