Pickled, Spicy Carrot Sticks
I'm cutting out recipes I want to save. I found this one in a November 1994 Woman's Day.
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups white vinegar
1-1/2 cups water
1 cup sugar
2 Tbs. mustard seed
1 tsp. celery seed
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
4 small (1-1/2") bay leaves
2 lbs. carrots, peeled and cut in thin sticks (slightly shorter than
the storage jars)
Directions:
Bring all ingredients to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat, cover and
simmer 6 to 7 minutes, until carrots are crisp-tender. When cool
enough to handle, arrange carrots upright in two 1-pint jars. Place 1
of the bay leaves in each jar. Pour liquid over vegetables to cover.
Loosely cover jars and refrigerate. When cold, tighten lids and keep
refrigerated.

Sounds good. You sure are finding some great recipes while going through all the old magazines. Gonna be hard to part with those magazines.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that takes time with this recipe is cutting up the carrots.
DeleteNo room in Florida, I could bring them down and give them away but then I have to pack & move them. Who knows if anyone would even want them
oh these carrot sticks sounds delish! thanks for sharing the recipe!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy them!
DeleteNow this is something I have never tried, but I have no doubt I would love it! Thanks for sharing the recipe with us at Snickerdoodle Sunday! Pinned to share :)
ReplyDeleteI'm always on the lookout for recipes that are different. They are a great little snack and take care of my sugar craving! LOL
DeleteThanks for the pin!
Now this is different. I wii try this. Larry makes his own pickled eggs like this. I would rather he ate the carrots. Thanks Linda..
ReplyDeleteDottie- like I told Myra the only hard part making this is cutting up the carrots!

Those sound great! I just got some great carrots at the Farmer's Market, so I'll definitely have to try this!! Thank you for sharing this with us at the #HomeMattersParty
ReplyDeleteI planted carrots in my garden this winter and they didn't do well, I think the soil is to heavy but I'm going to try again. Love fresh carrots and unfortunately I don't have a decent farmers market near us.
