Pickled Veggies

Pickled vegetables add a touch of freshness and zing to your BBQ table. They’re delicious served alongside meat, fish or burgers, and provide a lovely contrast to rich BBQ flavours.

Duration:

60 minutes

Preparation

  1. Cut the vegetables into thin, even pieces. Use clean jars or containers. Take your time and get everything ready so you don’t have to rummage around when you’re at the barbecue.

  2. Mix the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and herbs to make a refreshing pickling liquid. Mix everything together thoroughly and take your time doing so, as this is where the flavour develops.

  3. Briefly heat the liquid so that the sugar and salt dissolve. Leave it to cool slightly. Take it easy and follow the steps at a leisurely pace – that way, barbecuing stays fun.

  4. Pour the liquid over the vegetables until they are all covered. Take it easy and follow the steps at a leisurely pace – that way, barbecuing stays fun.

  5. Leave the vegetables to marinate for at least a few hours. Leaving them in the fridge overnight will give them more flavour. Keep a close eye on the preparation and carry on working calmly according to the recipe.

  6. Serve as a refreshing side dish with grilled meat, burgers or ribs. Get everything ready and serve straight away, as this tastes best fresh from the barbecue.

  7. Time to sit down to dinner. Serve up the dish, grab a cold drink to go with it, and enjoy – from all of us at XCelsius.
