Cooking Instructions

  1. Prepare the vegetables
    Wash and slice all vegetables thinly for even pickling. Arrange them in sterilised glass jars.
  2. Make the pickling brine
    In a saucepan, heat Colman’s White Vinegar with salt and sugar until just simmering. You can also add mustard seeds, peppercorns or a bay leaf for extra aroma.
  3. Combine
    Pour the warm vinegar mixture over the vegetables, ensuring they are fully submerged.
  4. Infuse
    Let the jars cool at room temperature, then seal tightly. Store in the fridge for at least 24 hours before serving to allow flavours to develop.
