Pickled Pico De Gallo Jicama Recipe

Recipe by: blackbeltman

"Great appetizer! Pickled jicama that is flavored with pico de gallo spices and lime."

Directions

1Bring water, vinegar, pickling salt, Key lime juice, and pico de gallo seasoning to a boil in a saucepan; boil and stir until salt is dissolved.
2Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack jicama sticks and lime slices into hot, sterilized jars. Pour hot water-vinegar mixture into jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
3Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes.
4Remove jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area for 10 to 14 days.
