Notes

  • The longer you leave it, the spicier your Pikliz will be.
  • You will need to use less and less of it to flavor your food, the longer you leave your pikliz to pickle.
  • Sour Oranges are usually available only in Caribbean markets. This sour orange juice is often used instead of the lime juice.
  • You can also use white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
