Most people don't think about grapes when creating a canned pickle recipe. The pickling liquid for these grapes includes red wine, vinegar, and common pickling spices like coriander, mustard seeds and hot pepper; it also contains warm spices like cinnamon and star anise along with brown sugar. These flavor-packed grapes are unique and delicious on an antipasto, pickle or cheese tray. -Cheryl Perry, Hertford, North Carolina

Tips:

  • Select the right carrots: Choose fresh, firm carrots that are about the same size for even cooking.
  • Use a mandoline slicer for thin, uniform carrot ribbons: If you don't have a mandoline, use a sharp knife to cut the carrots into thin strips.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the carrots: This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the carrots until they are tender but still have a bit of crunch: Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Add the grapes and almonds just before serving: This will prevent the grapes from becoming too soft and the almonds from burning.
  • Season the carrots to taste: You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice, depending on your preference.

Conclusion:

Tangy Carrots with Grapes is a simple but flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet carrots, tart grapes, and crunchy almonds is a delight to the senses. This dish is also healthy and easy to make, making it a great choice for busy weeknights.
