Instructions
Rinse the radishes under cold water, remove the tops and root ends, and slice into thin, even rounds.
1 Bunch Red Radishes
Add a layer of radish slices to a clean jar, followed by a few slices of fresh ginger and a small pinch of salt. Repeat until the jar is filled.
1 Inch Piece Ginger, 1 Tsp Salt
Pour white wine vinegar over the radishes until they are fully covered. Press down gently to keep everything submerged.
1 Cup White Wine Vinegar
Seal/cover the jar and place it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before using.
For best flavor, let the radishes sit for a few hours or overnight before serving.
Notes
These are best within the first few days while they still have a crisp bite.
If the flavor is too sharp, add a small pinch of sugar and shake the jar.
Keep all radishes fully submerged to ensure even pickling.
Flavor deepens over time, especially with the ginger infusion.
