INSTRUCTIONS
Peel carrots, cut in half lengthwise then into 4cm (1.5 inch) long
pieces. Cut celery into similar sized pieces. Remove seeds from
Capsicums and cut into 2cm (3/4 inch) strips, 4cm long. Break the
cauliflower into 4cm flowerets. Dissolve the salt in cold water.
Dissolve the salt in cold water. Cover the vegetables with this brine
and leave overnight. A clean (new) plastic bucket is a suitable
container. After 12-18 hours drain the vegetables, rinse in cold
water, and allow to drain again. Select jars with glass or enamelled
lids. Wash and rinse well, then dry in a warm oven, 100 deg C. In a
large enamel or stainless steel pan combine vinegar, mustard seed,
celery seed, chillies and sugar. Boil for 3 minutes and then add the
carrots and onions and boil for 5 minutes. Fill the warmed jars with
hot vegetables and top up with vinegar to within 1cm (half inch) of
rim. Close lids firmly. Makes approx 3 litres. From Gemini's MASSIVE
