How You’ll Make It

Prepare the Asparagus: Wash asparagus and snap off woody ends. Trim spears to fit vertically in a quart-size jar.
Pack the Jar: Place garlic, peppercorns, and optional red pepper flakes at the bottom of a clean quart jar. Tightly pack the asparagus upright.
Make the Brine: In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, water, maple syrup, and salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring until salt dissolves (about 2–3 minutes).
Pour the Brine: Carefully pour the hot brine over the asparagus, covering completely but leaving about ½ inch of headspace at the top.
Seal & Chill: Let cool slightly, then seal with a lid. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before eating. Flavor deepens over 2–3 days.

Storage

Refrigerated, these asparagus pickles stay crisp and flavorful for up to 3 weeks.
