makes 1 quart, pickling liquid can be reused for another batch
Place vegetables in a large ceramic or glass bowl. Bring pickling liquid to boil in a saucepan and pour over vegetables. Stir gently and let sit at room temperature until liquid cools.
Strain veggies from the pickling liquid (save this) and store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Keep the pickling liquid in a quart-sized glass container, also in the refrigerator, and use it to make another batch in the future.
