Instructions

    Trim woody ends of asparagus and cut into 6 cm lengths.

  2. 2

    Blanch for 20 seconds, then shock in ice water to keep the color.

  3. 3

    Place asparagus, sliced garlic, and thin lemon slices into a sterilized jar.

  4. 4

    Bring soy sauce, water, vinegar, sugar, and peppercorns to a brief boil.

    Cool brine for 3 minutes, pour into the jar, then cool fully and seal.

  6. 6

    Refrigerate and start eating after 24 hours; best within 5 days.

Tips

Strict blanch time keeps the texture crisp longer.
Too much lemon pith can add bitterness.
