Wash the fresh black currants thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine apple cider vinegar, water, and erythritol. Stir until erythritol is fully dissolved.
Add salt, mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the spices to infuse into the liquid.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Place the dried black currants in a sterilized glass jar, packing them tightly.
Carefully pour the warm pickling liquid over the black currants, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Seal the jar with a lid and let it cool completely at room temperature.
Once cooled, refrigerate the pickle for at least 48 hours before consuming to enhance the flavors.
Enjoy the Keto Black Currants Pickle with your favorite dishes or as a zesty snack.
