Have you pickled cauliflowers?

[piskieinboots]

I just want plain pickled caulis but all the 'recipes' I'm finding are with this that and the other. I have searched the wonderful Vine but no one appears to have posted on this

I haven't done it myself, but in my Marguerite Patten book it says:

divide cauli in small neat florets.
Place in wet brine (ie 2oz salt to a pt of water) to cover, for 24 hrs
Rinse well and rinse again
pack into cold sterilised jars & pour over spiced vinegar (which can be a normal norman vinegar as far as I can see)
Seal and wotnot

I did mine in with onions but just as Hazel says, soak in salt water for 24 hours, rinse well and put in jars with (in my case) Sarsons pickling vinegar - white. Turned out scrummy, must remember to do more.

oooooo cheers Hazel - that sounds perfect, just the job
