Home-made Spicy Pickled Green Mangoes
This is very spicy, so if you can’t take the heat I would suggest only using half of the
“hot” ingredients, or even removing the red pepper flakes.
Ingredients:
- 7 med green mangoes peeled and sliced into wedges.
- 1 cup of distilled white vinegar
- 1 cup of water
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp of pickling salt
- 1/3 cup of sugar
- Juice of 1 lemon, or about 1/8 of a cup
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 7 thin slices of peeled fresh ginger.
- 3/8 tsp ” BALL ” pickle crisp granules
Method to prepare your Pickled Green Mangoes:
- In a small nonstick skillet, heat the cinnamon, cumin, and peppers on med-low heat until
- ” toasted “, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
- The Brine
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine vinegar, water, sugar, salt, lemon juice, and the toasted spices.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally whilst cooking, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pack the mango wedges into
- 1 – one-pint and
- 1 – one-quart jar and add the pickle crisp granules as follows:
- 1/8 tsp to the pint jar and 1/4 tsp to the quart jar.
- Pour the hot brine into the jars and allow to cool.
- Ensure that the mango wedges are completely covered.
- This process is hastened by placing the jars in a larger pot filled with water and ice.
- This is known as blanching and ensures the uniform absorption of the spices.
- When completely cool, cap the jars and refrigerate for 3 to 7 days before consuming.
