Tips for Pickling Radishes

It’s important that the radishes are sliced very thinly so they pickle quickly. A mandoline would come in handy here, but a sharp knife and some patience will also work.

You can use any mild vinegar you’d like to make pickled radishes. I prefer red wine vinegar or white wine vinegar, but white vinegar or even apple cider vinegar should also work.

To flavor your quick pickled radishes, you can add additional herbs and spices. A few options include: star anise, whole peppercorns, red chili flakes, honey, and garlic cloves.
