For a spicier kick, add a few more red pepper flakes or a small, thinly sliced chili pepper. Make sure the brine has cooled completely before pouring it into the jar to prevent the snap peas from becoming too soft. Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices, such as mustard seeds, coriander seeds, or bay leaves, to customize the flavor profile.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Jar: Thoroughly inspect a one-quart sized jar and its ring for any cracks or rust. Immerse them in simmering water to sterilize while you prepare the brine. (Time: 10 minutes)
02
StepMake the Brine: In a non-reactive saucepan, combine the distilled white vinegar, kosher salt, and white sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring continuously until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved. (Time: 5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the water. Allow the brine to cool to room temperature. (Time: 15 minutes)
03
StepPack the Jar: Place the trimmed sugar snap peas, sliced garlic, lemon zest, dill seed, and tarragon sprigs into the sterilized jar. Pour the cooled vinegar mixture over the ingredients, ensuring they are fully submerged. Wipe the rim of the jar with a moist paper towel to remove any residue.
04
StepSeal and Refrigerate: Top the jar with the lid and screw the ring on tightly. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the pickling process to occur. The pickled snap peas will continue to develop flavor and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
