Kim Dae-seok's Apple Pickle

A sweet and sour apple pickle made by marinating apples in a brine of lemon, apple vinegar, and honey

Ingredients needed 6 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • The water used for the brine must be brought to a full boil and cooled completely before use to ensure a clean, clear pickle flavor.
  • Removing the apple seeds and tough core cleanly prevents bitterness from leaking into the pickle, making each bite more enjoyable.
  • The low-salt ratio combined with natural sweetness from raw honey results in a balanced, non-overpowering taste—ideal as a light, satisfying snack during meals.
  • Rinse the storage jars with hot water, then dry them thoroughly to eliminate any moisture that could dilute the pickle’s flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy apples as a sweet and sour side.
  • People looking for a fruit pickle to serve with salads or meat dishes.
