Quick Pickled Mango

Ingredients

• 4 Mangoes, unripe
• 2 cups White vinegar
• 1 ½ cups Granulated sugar
• 1 ½ tbsp Kosher salt
• 1 Thinly sliced chili pepper (optional)

Directions

1. Prep Mango: Peel the mangoes. Slice the flesh off the seed using a serrated utility knife, then cut into ½ inch thin strips.
2. Prepare Brine: In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt, then remove from heat.
3. Pickling Process: Place the mango slices and chili pepper slices (if using) into a heatproof container. Pour the hot brine over the mangoes, ensuring they're fully submerged.
4. Cool & Store: Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for 48-72 hours before serving.
