Ingredients
Fresh strawberries (about 1 pound)
1 cup Olivelle Prosecco Vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon whole peppercorns
Mason jar(s) with lids
Directions
Start by washing and drying the strawberries. Remove the stems and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size. You want them to be bite-sized and easy to enjoy.
Grab your mason jar and start layering the sliced strawberries, making sure not to pack them too tightly. As you add layers of strawberries, sprinkle a pinch of peppercorns here and there to distribute the spicy warmth throughout.
Pour in the Olivelle Prosecco Vinegar, sugar, salt, and the remaining peppercorns.
Secure the lid tightly onto the mason jar. Gently give the jar a little shake to help distribute the flavors. Now comes the waiting game! Place the jar in the refrigerator and allow the strawberries to marinate for at least 2 hours. For even more robust flavors, you can let them pickle overnight.
Once your pickled strawberries have soaked up the deliciousness of the pickling solution, they're ready to enjoy! The strawberries will be subtly tangy, with hints of sweetness and a touch of heat from the peppercorns.
