Pickled vegetables are a versatile side dish appropriate for almost any weeknight dinner. They also make a quick and tasty sandwich topping. These bright and crunchy vegetables are pickled in a brine strongly flavored with ginger for an added bite against the cooling flavor of the vegetables.
Bring 1 cup each cider vinegar and water, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons kosher salt, 4 slices fresh ginger, 1 crushed garlic clove and 1 teaspoon peppercorns to a boil in a saucepan. Pour over 2 sliced Persian cucumbers, 1 sliced red bell pepper and 2 small sliced carrots. Let cool. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
