Ingredients
2 cups distilled white vinegar
3 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
2 teaspoons red chile flakes
6 sprigs fresh dill
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 medium zucchini (about 2 pounds), sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 small red onion, halved and sliced into thin half-moons
Directions
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the vinegar, salt, mustard seeds, chile flakes and 3 cups water to a simmer. Cook until the salt has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
- Divide the dill, garlic, zucchini and onions evenly between 2 quart-size mason jars.
- Pour the hot liquid into the mason jars to cover the ingredients and let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Serve immediately or cover with lids and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
