- 4 medium carrots
- 2 firm, ripe mangos, peeled
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled, left whole
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Cut carrots into narrow 4-inch sticks. Blanch in boiling water 2 minutes. Immediately immerse in cold water; drain. Place in a large glass bowl.
- Slice round mango cheeks from pit (save trimmings to eat later). Cut into long, thin strips (similar in size to carrots). Place in bowl with carrots and whole garlic cloves.
- Combine minced garlic, salt, vinegar, water, and sugar in a non-aluminum saucepan; bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and pour hot liquid over carrots and mango sticks. Cool to room temperature. Transfer to jars with tight lids and refrigerate 1 hour (or longer) before serving.
