You can add more jalapenos or Thai chilis to make your Đồ Chua spicier.
The longer you leave the pickles in the fridge, the tangier, sour and more pickled your Đồ Chua will become.
Đồ Chua will typically last up to 3 weeks, but you can definitely eat it way beyond that. Think of it as like a best by date.

We love letting our Đồ Chua ferment for at least 3 days. You can also eat it immediately. Đồ Chua should last for up to 3 weeks, but that is only the best buy date. Feel free to eat your Đồ Chua 1-2 months thereafter.
