Pickled vegetables have the power to dial up the flavour factor in any meal. Sun-dried tomatoes bring delicious tanginess to Italian antipasto, while salty olives and capers make pasta puttanesca sing.

The method of pickling involves fermenting a fruit or vegetable in an acidic brine to bring out a distinctive savoury taste and extend its shelf life. If you’re ever in a culinary pickle (pun intended), jazz up your midweek meals with a dose of Always Fresh pickled veg — from peppers to cucumber, asparagus, artichokes and more.
