Easy & Delicious Pickled Strawberries
This is an unusual idea that inspired something I saw several years ago. Once drained, the sweet, interestingly flavored strawberries are delicious to put out as part of a snack spread alongside strong cheese and gluten-free crackers. You could also simply toss them into salads! Macros are based on a 6-person serving.
Chef Tips:
- Thickly slice the strawberries, or else they will lose their shape once drained.
- Don’t allow any longer than one hour of pickling time, as the strawberries will soften too much.
- The hot sauce and the orange zest are optional but offer an interesting flavor kick!
Pickled Strawberries
Pickled strawberries are sweet, tangy, and savory. You only need about an hour to make them, and they taste amazing in salads, added to a charcuterie board, or served with cheese and gluten-free crackers.
Ingredients

- 3 green onions, sliced
- 1 garlic clove, peeled and smashed with the back of a knife
- ½ whole black peppercorns
- ½ tsp coriander seeds
- ½ tsp black mustard seeds
- 7 fl oz rice wine vinegar
- Splash hot sauce (optional)
- A little finely grated orange zest (optional)
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients into a small Kilner or mason jar and leave to pickle for no longer than 1 hour.
- Before serving, drain well to ensure no one bites into a peppercorn or coriander seed.
