Instructions

Place a pinch of whole black pepper, fennel seed, and chopped Fresno pepper at the bottom of each mason jar.

Cut the celery stalks into sticks or diced pieces.

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup white vinegar, 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 3 tablespoons honey, and 2 teaspoons kosher salt. Bring to a gentle boil over low heat.

Pour the hot brine over the cut celery, ensuring all pieces are submerged.

Let the jars cool to room temperature, then screw on the lids and store in the refrigerator.

Let sit for at least 24 hours before enjoying. Pickled celery will keep for up to 2 months.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Celery Selection Magic 🥬
Choose crisp, firm celery stalks with no wilting or soft spots to ensure the best texture and crunch in your pickled celery.
Brine Balancing Act 🧂
Use a 1:1 ratio of apple cider and white vinegar to create a perfectly balanced acidity that complements the celery's natural flavor.
Spice Infusion Technique 🌶️
Lightly toast fennel seeds and whole black peppercorns before adding to the brine to unlock their deeper, more complex aromatics.
Cutting Precision 🔪
Cut celery into uniform, thin diagonal slices (about 1/4 inch thick) to ensure even pickling and optimal flavor absorption.
Refrigerator Pickle Perfection 🧊
Allow pickled celery to sit in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving to develop maximum flavor complexity and texture.
