Pickled Carrots With Tarragon Recipes

QUICK PICKLED CARROTS

Steps:

• After peeling and trimming the carrots to fit, pack them into a glass mason jar. I used a tall 750ml jar (which is about 25oz for my US friends, or you can divide them between two smaller jars).
• I packed as many as I could (about 6) while still having room to add the whole clove of garlic and dill.
• Add the rest of the ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once the sugar and salt are dissolved, remove from heat and carefully pour into the jar.
