For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of crushed red pepper flakes or omit them entirely. Ensure the asparagus spears are submerged in the vinegar mixture to ensure even pickling. These pickled asparagus spears can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Feel free to experiment with other spices and herbs, such as dill, bay leaves, or coriander seeds, to customize the flavor to your liking.
