I love pickled asparagus but got tired of spending so much money on tiny little jars and decided to pickle my own. I also like it spicy but feel free to halve the crushed red pepper or omit it altogether if spice is not your thing.
AMAZING!!! I only had 1/2 pound of asparagus, which was quite a disappointment because these turned out so good I couldn't stop eating them! I tried them after 1 day and they were already delicious and addicting, but they got even better as the days went on. The spice-level was exactly how I like it. These make the perfect garnish for a Bloody Mary (or Caesar if you're Canadian!) I'm going to re-use the brine to make another batch, since the first batch disappeared so fast.

Love these, for the taste, the simplicity and the freshness set in on the asparagus (and added green beans). I do have a question though, how long should these be safe in the fridge? I'm guessing at least a month, but not a full shelf stable pickle for sure. thanks again, love these.
