Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cauliflower florets
- 1 cup Carrots, sliced
- 1 cup Celery, sliced
- 1 large Red bell pepper, diced
- 2 medium Jalapeños, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons Salt
- 2 cups Water
- 2 cups White vinegar
- 1 cup Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, carrots, celery, red bell pepper, jalapeños, and garlic.
Dissolve the salt in water and pour this mixture over the vegetables. Allow them to soak for 6-8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator to begin the pickling process.
Drain and rinse the vegetables under cold water to remove excess salt.
In a medium bowl, mix together white vinegar, olive oil, oregano, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes to form the pickling brine.
Combine the rinsed vegetables with the brine, ensuring that the liquid covers the vegetables.
Transfer the giardiniera mixture into clean, sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top.
Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate for at least 48 hours before consuming to allow flavors to develop.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
