Ingredients
- 1 3/4 pounds cubed pumpkin, 3/4-inch cubes
- 1 2/3 cups white wine vinegar
- 1 2/3 cups water
- 2 walnut-sized pieces unpeeled fresh ginger, thinly sliced on the bias
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 cloves
- 14 whole black peppercorns
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash a 2-quart preserving jar with a fresh rubber gasket seal, and boil the jar for 10 minutes (without the gasket) to sterilize it. Place the cubed pumpkin in the jar and fit the gasket in place.
- In a large saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, ginger, salt, cloves, and peppercorns. Over low heat, stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until the sugar has dissolved, then increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, then pour the hot liquid over the pumpkin in the jar. Immediately seal the jar and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for 1 week before using. Once unsealed, the pickled pumpkin will keep for 2 to 3 weeks in the refrigerator.
