Quick Pickles | Refrigerator Pickles

Quick Pickles | Refrigerator Pickles use a quicker cold technique of pickling using vinegar and retain the texture and vibrant colour of fruits and vegetables with a shorter shelf life of between 1-2 weeks or up to 3 months. Quick pickles are my go to mode of food upcycling for leftovers, kitchen scraps, and  parts of fruits and vegetables that are most usually thrown away as rubbish, such as watermelon rinds and beetroot stems. Some of my favorite quick pickles with a delicious crunchy crisp texture and gorgeous colour that is fantastic to use in salads and pickle cocktails include:

• -beetroot stems
• -rhubarb
• -watermelon rinds
