We all love the crispy, sweet, and sour chicken radish pickles that come with fried chicken. But have you ever wished for more? Now, you can easily make your own at home! This super simple recipe takes just 5 minutes and results in pickles that are just as crisp and refreshing as store-bought, without any special ingredients. They’re the perfect accompaniment to greasy foods and add a delightful tang to any meal. Enjoy! ^^
Main Ingredients- 1/2 small radish
Pickling Brine- 2 paper cups water
- 1 paper cup vinegar
- 1 paper cup sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
- 2 paper cups water
- 1 paper cup vinegar
- 1 paper cup sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the radish thoroughly. Then, dice it into bite-sized cubes. Cutting them slightly larger than bite-sized will help maintain a good texture.
Step 2
Sterilize the glass jar you’ll be using for the pickles. Wash it thoroughly and then place it upside down in boiling water for a few minutes to sterilize. This helps extend the shelf life.
Step 3
Carefully pack the diced radish into the sterilized glass jar, pressing down gently to fill it completely. Packing the jar tightly ensures the brine will be absorbed well.
Step 4
Now, let’s make the pickling brine. Using paper cups as your measure, combine 2 cups of water, 1 cup of vinegar, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 tablespoon of salt in a pot. Bring it to a rolling boil, stirring until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.
Step 5
Once the brine is boiling vigorously, turn off the heat. Immediately pour the hot brine over the radish in the jar. Pouring the brine while it’s still hot is the key to keeping the radish wonderfully crisp!
Step 6
After pouring the brine, let the jar cool down completely at room temperature. Once it has cooled and no steam is rising, secure the lid tightly and refrigerate. The pickles will be ready to enjoy in 1-2 days.
Step 7
Your delicious homemade chicken radish pickles are ready! I’ve also prepared some fried chicken to go with these amazing pickles. Just looking at them makes me hungry! ^^
Step 8
Taking a bite of the homemade pickle, I’m amazed by the perfectly crisp texture and the delightful sweet and sour flavor! Paired with fried chicken, it cuts through the richness and doubles the enjoyment – pure bliss! These pickles aren’t just for chicken; they’re fantastic with other rich or greasy foods like grilled pork belly, cleansing your palate and adding a refreshing element. You should definitely try making them!
