Spicy Radish and Turnip Quick Pickle
/1 bunch Hong Vit radishes
1 bunch salad turnips
¾ cup white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
¾ cup water
3 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
2 tsp salt
½ tsp red pepper flakes
½ tsp whole mustard seeds
Scrub the turnips and radishes clean then remove the tops and slice as thin as you can. If you have a mandolin to use, great. If not, not a problem. When slicing small round veggies it’s simple to trim one of the round ends then rotate to flat side down this will keep the veggie still while your slicing instead of dealing with it rolling around.
In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, honey or maple syrup and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, then pour the mixture over the radishes and turnips.
Let cool to room temperature. It can be ready to serve right away or place in your fridge for later use for a salad or snack.
