  • 1 cup (250 ml) white sugar
  • 1 T (15 ml) Ina Paarman's Seasoned Sea Salt Seasoning
  • freshly ground black pepper

Ina’s Tip

To develop the flavour in mustard powder it needs to be soaked in cold water first. Flavour development is stopped as soon as the mustard powder is heated or put into contact with vinegar.

Method:

Mix the mustard powder and cold water and leave to stand for 10 minutes.

Bring the vinegar, water and sugar to rapid boil.

Mix in the mustard, Seasoned Sea Salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Add the vegetables and boil for 3 minutes.

Pack into a clean glass container and fill up with boiling hot pickling liquid.

Seal immediately.

These pickled vegetables are best after standing for a day or two.

Keeps refrigerated for 2 weeks.
