Spicy Pickled Radishes – 0 Points +
With a ton of extra radishes on hand last week, I debated on what to do with them. Since I was planning on making some homemade deli sandwiches later that weekend, I decided to try my hand at making some homemade pickled radishes to go with them. I am SO glad I did this! These spicy pickled radishes were AMAZING! And the best part was that the pickling was so easy. This is a no-cook pickling recipe, so it literally took me all of 5 minutes to prepare this. Then I just put the jar in the fridge and let the recipe work it’s magic. So simple, yet so delicious. The red coloring of the skin does dissolve in the vinegar creating a pink brine, so just be aware of that when you make them. It’s totally normal and expected. I wanted mine spicy, so I used some sliced jalapenos in my brine, but if you want a more mild version, try using celery or bell peppers instead. Or get creative and add in any kind of peppers you want! Next time, I may add some dill or bay leaves too. But for my heat loving appetite, my spicy pickled radishes recipe was perfect as is. I could seriously NOT stop eating them. I’ve already gone through two jars! I may need an intervention soon. If you like all things pickled, this low calorie recipe is a must!
