Pickled Broccoli Stems

These fast pickled stems solely require the next components:

• broccoli stems
• sugar
• rice wine vinegar
• lime juice
• sesame oil
• garlic

You need to peel the surface of the broccoli stems and minimize away any woody ends earlier than slicing it. After peeling, use a mandoline, sharp knife, or vegetable peeler to slice the broccoli very thinly.

Place the sliced broccoli stems in a heat-proof quart-size jar, or (2) 16-ounce jars. In a small stainless saucepan, mix the sugar, vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, and garlic. Carry to a boil over medium warmth.

Stir till the sugar utterly dissolves. That can take nearly 2 minutes.

Pour the recent brine over the broccoli stems, then put aside to chill. Cowl and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour.

The pickled stalks will maintain properly within the fridge for as much as 1 week. Chances are you’ll end up opening the fridge simply to sneak a pair pickles!
