Sriracha Pickles.

You can cook Sriracha Pickles using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

Ingredients of Sriracha Pickles

1. You need 1 pints of jar of whole gherkin cucumbers (I use Mexican Sour Gherkins from the garden -- sliced cucumber will work, too).
2. It's 1 cup of vinegar (white, cider, or wine).
3. It's 1/2 cup of water.
4. It's 3 tbsp of pickling salt (or any pure salt).
5. It's 1 tbsp of hot sauce (sriracha), to taste.

Sriracha Pickles step by step

1. Add gherkins/cucumber to a clean pint jar..
2. In a small saucepan, heat the vinegar, water and salt to a boil. Remove from heat..
3. Stir in the hot sauce and cool for about 3 -5 minutes (liquid should still be hot, but not boiling hot)..
4. Pour the liquid into the jar over the gherkins/cucumbers..
5. Cap the jar and allow it to sit at room temperature for at least 3-4 days before eating. (You can try them after 24 hours, but they won't be fully pickled)..
6. Once they're pickled, move the jar to the refrigerator..
