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
Prep Mango: Peel the mangoes. Slice the flesh off the seed using a serrated utility knife, then cut into ½ inch thin strips.
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.
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.
Cool & Store: Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for 48-72 hours before serving.
