Do Spicy Pickled Grapes sound like a weirdly intriguing recipe to you? A sweet and spicy, grape salad, incorporating different flavors, spices and tastes from sugary sweetness to tangy vinegars and a variation of fresh roots.
To be specific, I toss halved green and red grapes with sugar, in a boiled dressing of white vinegar, cider vinegar everywhere, banana pepper slices, jalapeño slices, red chili slices, cinnamon sticks, fresh ginger root slices, coriander seeds, allspice and hot sauce and then chill overnight. Sounds unusual but it will open up your taste buds and get your senses flowing. A delicious snack or accompaniment for curry night.
To make Spicy Pickled Grapes, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large saucepan, combine ½ cup of sugar with ½ cup of white vinegar, ½ cup of cider vinegar, 1 sliced banana pepper, 2 sliced jalapeño peppers, 1 sliced red chili, 4 cinnamon sticks, 2 inches of thinly sliced ginger root, 1 tablespoon of coriander seeds, 1 teaspoon of whole allspice and 4 drops of hot pepper sauce. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer for about 3-5 minutes until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Once cooled, toss 1½ pounds of halved green grapes and 1½ pounds of halved red grapes with the prepared and cooled pickling liquid.
Cover the bowl with some plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 12 hours to chill, before serving.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
