A New Year Pickle

A week ago, I pickled the final red cabbage picking from the vegetable patch.

I had never pickled it before. No, it's not a natural fermentation. Although that is on my list of things to learn.

Anyway, having consulted a few recipes and doing my own thing, yesterday was D-day. A little bowl of pretty, red pickle joined our New Year's Day spread. A welcome break from my usual kitchen duty.

The verdict: good flavour, crunch and colour.

Will be better in at least another week. Probably four. Will be great with the veg burgers on Monday's supper menu.

Until next time, be well

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:

• re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
• and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
