Description
I was trying to come up with a way to use up a bunch of apples we had in our fridge. Eventually I decided to just pickle them refrigerator-style. This is the result.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup cider vinegar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon whole allspice berries
- 1 tablespoon whole cloves
- 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 6 apples – peeled, cored and sliced
- ½ cup lemon juice
Instructions
- Place water
- cider vinegar
- sugar
- allspice
- clove
- nutmeg
- and ginger into a small saucepan
- and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat
- stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Meanwhile
- toss sliced apples with lemon juice
- and pack into two sterilized 1-quart canning jars with lids and rings. Pour boiling syrup over apples
- and affix the lids and rings.
- Allow jars to stand at room temperature until cool. Once cool
- press the top of each lid with a finger
- ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Place in the refrigerator
- and wait 1 week before opening.
