Pickling Liquid

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Shred the cabbage and carrots. Thinly slice the bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Halve the Scotch bonnet pepper and remove seeds for less heat if desired.

  2. 2

    Make the Pickling Liquid

    In a saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, salt, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the salt and sugar dissolve, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Pack the Jar

    In a clean jar, layer the shredded vegetables and spices. Pour the pickling liquid over the vegetables, ensuring they are fully submerged.

  4. 4

    Seal and Refrigerate

    Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before using to allow the flavors to meld.
