Craving something refreshing to complement your crispy fried chicken tenders or hearty hot dogs? While I had a salsa sauce ready, I decided to whip up these super simple, ‘eat-now’ cabbage pickles! They are incredibly easy to make and can be enjoyed chilled after just a short time in the refrigerator. The delightful sweet and sour flavor, combined with the satisfying crunch of the cabbage, pairs wonderfully with fried chicken and is also a fantastic match for a sweet hot dog!
Ingredients
- 1/4 head of cabbage
- 1 tsp salt
- 5 Tbsp sugar
- 4 Tbsp vinegar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Cut the cabbage into large, bite-sized squares. This helps maintain a satisfying crunch. Feel free to adjust the size according to your preference.
Step 2
Begin by adding the sugar to the cut cabbage and mixing well. This step ensures the sugar dissolves evenly and coats the cabbage, setting the stage for the pickling liquid.
Step 3
Next, generously add the vinegar and a splash of lemon juice, then mix thoroughly. Once combined, refrigerate for about 1 hour. Your delicious cabbage pickles will be ready to enjoy cold!
Step 4
And there you have it – your super simple ‘instant’ cabbage pickles are ready! Serve them chilled after about an hour. The tangy and sweet flavors are sure to awaken your palate and elevate your meal. Enjoy!
