It's better to have the carrots be a little too crisp than too soft and mushy. Drain carrots and transfer to a large non-reactive bowl. But if your garden is overflowing with rows upon rows of lush radishes, beets, turnips, green beans, tomatoes and carrots using them all up before they go bad can be a bit of a struggle. This was really quick and easy. I've never pickled before but wanted a way to use leftover veggies- especially the carrots I've had in the fridge for too long.
