Reviews
I’ve been making this for years. I do add a couple of sliced garlic cloves tho.
Question: When it says refrigerate for up to a week, does that mean that they only last a week?
I’ve made these about 5 times now and just love them. I do like them a bit spicier than these so I tweeked it with a tablespoon of red pepper flakes, a 1/4 cup of pickled jalapeno juice and a tablespoon of the pepper slices themselves, and a tablespoon of ground red pepper. After boiling the mixture I strain out the red pepper flakes before pouring over the carrots. The last time I made them I had a jar of the juice left and added long thin slices of raw carrots. Let them sit for a couple of days and they were just as good. A great snack and good in salads.
These were delicious! Will definitely make again!
