in_a_pickleWelcome to all who love to dabble in the business of pickling and preserving! I used to help my grandmother with this when I was a child (most of my most treasured memories involve my grandmother and myself preparing enormous amounts of vegetables from the allotment prior to storing - or a mixing bowl, a wooden spoon and lots of lovely cake ingredients).
Now that I have a permanent base with my partner of four years I have picked up this craft again. I began with cabbage and eggs, but have also successfully made chutney, onion and rosemary confiturra and piccalilli from scratch.
Red Onion and Rosemary Confiturra
First batch of Piccalilli. Since it was made the colour has settled from this honey gold to a far more recognisable mustard yellow
My anything-goes "Tribble Towers" Chutney. So-named because Tribble Towers is what we call our home!
I'm more than happy to share recipes of all of these goodies - just ask!
Firstly though, I'd like you all to pull up a chair around the kitchen table and use this post to get to know each other.
