[1]As summer hastens to a close the pressure is on to squirrel away as much of the local abundance as possible. We've really been grooving on these freshly dug, radiant rainbow carrots. Slowly roasted in butter [2] is our current preparation of choice but knowing they're soon to disappear we put up a big batch with this Sweet and Sour Rainbow Carrot pickle recipe to brighten the long winter ahead.

Underneath their regal skins you'll find plain old orange bodies. It's the age old story, strip the robes from the king and what do you find but a man, no different than you or I.
[3]So for these sweet and sour carrot pickles, you peel the the orange, white and yellow ones but a simple scrub is all that's desired for the claret colored gems. Quarter them into spears and pack tightly in sterilized jars. This tall 12 ounce size is perfect for elegantly slender results. Cover with the pickling solution and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.
This recipe was ample for three bunches of rainbow carrots with pickling liquid to spare, so you could use the excess on other hard vegetables like cauliflower or just more regular old carrots.
