PICKLING BRINE
Mix together the vegetables & layer in a large bowl. Sprinkle each layer
with salt. Pour in just enough water to cover. Place a plate on top to keep
the vegetables submerged. Cover & refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
Drain, rinse in several changes of water & drain again. Meanwhile, place 4
sprigs of basil in a small jar. Add whole garlic & just enough oil to
cover.  Cover tightly & refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Prepare
pickling brine by boiling the water, vinegar & sugar. Bring to a boil,
stirring till the sugar is dissolved & then keep hot until ready to use.
Sterilize 4 500mL canning jars.  In each one, place a basil sprig, garlic
clove & 1/2 ts mustard seeds. Without forcing, pack the vegetables into the
jars leaving 3/4" headspace. Pour pickling brine into each jar up to 1/2"
of the top. Remove any air bubbles by sliding a rubber spatula around the
edge of the jar; wipe rims & fir lids. Process in a boiling water bath for
20 minutes. Remove, cool, label & store.
