Pickle Recipes with Garden Snap Peas
This sweet fresh pickled snap pea recipe is the perfect way to use those extra garden peas. Throughout the summer our garden is overloaded with pea plants all ripening at once. I make this garden fresh pea pickles recipe with my extra peas and dill and a healthy snack is ready in no time. Enjoy that summer garden bounty with this bright and fresh pickle recipe all summer long. There’s nothing better than seasonal produce right out of the garden – if not your garden, then get fresh snap peas at your local farmer’s market stand ?

- Snap Peas: the fresher the better! I used snap peas from my garden, but you can use farmer’s market or store bought peas too.
- Rice vinegar: I love rice vinegar, I always keep this seasoned vinegar stocked in my pantry!
- White Wine Vinegar: not to be confused with normal white vinegar, this white wine vinegar gives the pickles a really nice sweetness and flavor.
- Pink Himalayan Sea Salt: I like to use a pink Himalayan Sea Salt in my kitchen, which has more natural minerals than plain processed table salt. It’s fairly inexpensive, so I’d recommend this salt if you’re looking for an easy way to level up your spice pantry.
- Fresh garlic
- Fresh dill
- Cumin Seeds – to give the pickles a nice earthy flavor
- Fennel Seeds – for brightness and spice
- Dill Seed – compliments the fresh dill in this recipe, making these pickles pop!
- Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! I like to add a few shakes to this recipe to give this dish a nice complex depth of flavor.
- Flat Airtight Dishes for Storage: I used these meal prep containers to layer the peas and dill. I wanted an airtight container that was also shallow to brine the pickles in, and also be able to shake and flip the container without getting brine over the floor. Once the pickles were marinating with the dill for a few days, I moved them into quart sized mason jars – wide mouth only!
How Do I Make Sugar Snap Pea Pickles?
- Wash snap peas and remove any leaves or stems.
- In a sauce pan, heat the rice vinegar, water, white wine vinegar, and salt until the salt dissolves. Add the garlic and seeds/spices to the pot, and rove from heat.
- Layer the snap peas and dill sprigs, in mason jars and pour the brine over the peas.
- Cover and chill the peas overnight. Pickled peas will keep up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
Grow Fresh Dill All Year Long
We got this great 6-Pod Aerogarden which is fantastic for growing herbs in the winter. We actually got it when we lived in a smaller apartment, but even now that we own an acreage we still use it year-round! I love growing herbs on my countertop like fresh basil, dill, mint, sage, thyme, parsley, and lemon balm. It uses LED lights and water, so no messy soil needed – you can have fresh herbs at your fingertips any time. I love picking a few springs of parsley to chop on pastas, adding basil leaves to soups, and tossing some dill in with my pasta salads. This Aerogarden is a great gift for anyone who would like fresh herbs… no big kitchen or green thumb required!
