Easy Sugar-free Refrigerator Pickles

For pickle lovers who try to stay away from sugar, you come to the right place. Not only it’s sugar free, it’s also easy without any weird ingredients or sugar replacement.

Since I’m not a believer of sugar replacement or any sweetener since I believe that everything processed is not good for our body, here is a twist of some Keto pickles recipes. Of course, without any sweetener or sugar.

I live in Indonesia and our pickles is actually a mix of cucumber, carrots, shallots and some, will add chilies. So you are most definitely okay to add chili in your pickles. I cannot. My bf cannot handle heat. 😜😜.

Alright, here we go. FYI, it will give you 2 x 500 gr jars of pickles. If you only wanna make 1 jar, then cut everything half.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Japanese cucumber (dark green, long and taste is sweet. Yes, I’m taking it’s sweetness to replace sugar). Dice, slice do whatever you like.
  • 1 big carrot. Again, cut it however you like.
  • 10 medium shallots. Cut into half or quarter, depending the size
  • 1 small yellow onion. Slice it thin
  • 1 clove of garlic. Crushed.
  • 3 tsp black peppercorn
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 10 tbsp white vinegar
  • water

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the veggies, then put them in a bowl, then mix with peppercorn and pinch of sea salt
  2. Crush the garlic, and put 1/2 in each jar.
  3. Add the veggies in the jars
  4. Pour 5 tbsp of vinegar to each jar
  5. Pour the water until covering the veggies.
  6. Close the jar, mix it well, put them in the fridge for 24 hours. That’s it!
