These pickled carrots are just as easy as homemade dill pickles. All you need to do is make a brine (water + spices + sugar + salt), heat it up, and pour it over your veggies. Let the whole thing cool to room temperature, then wait at least 2 hours. The longer you wait, the more flavorful your pickles will be.

If you're not a fan of spice, skip the crushed red pepper flakes, or decrease it to 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon. These crunchy sticks are HOT.
