Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 1 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano leaves
  • 1/3 English cucumber (cut into matchsticks)
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced thin
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded radish (optional)

Instruction

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the vinegar and water to a boil. Add the chives, garlic, sea salt, oregano, and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves and remove from heat.
  • Place the veggies in a bowl or jar with lid and slowly pour the hot vinegar mixture over the veggies. For a crisper, more al dente feel, let the liquid cool a bit before adding it to the jar.
  • Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes, then cover and place in the fridge. Enjoy the same day for a crisper, slaw-like texture and bite, or allow to sit for several days for softer, more deeply-flavored veggies.
