So Paulie and I have been pickling again this weekend. We have pickled some veg to spruce up our salad’s. Check out the cauliflower recipe too!
Ingredients (makes the 3 jars in picture)
- 6 bulbs of fennel, trimmed and sliced into very thin rings
- 3 medium orange’s ( or 1 per jar)
- 4 cups white wine vinegar (2 for large jar and 2 for the other jars)
- 4 tablespoons sea salt (2 for large jar and 2 for the other jars)
- 4 tablespoons sugar (2 for large jar and 2 for the other jars)
- jar of whole pieces star anise (again split between jars)
Method
-
Sterilise your jar’s
-
Wash fennel, trim ends and slice into very thin rings. Zest long strips of peel from orange. We did 1 orange per jar.
-
Bring 1 1/2 cups water, 2 cups vinegar, 2 tbsp salt, and 2 tbsp sugar to a boil in a pot
-
Meanwhile, fill each jar halfway with fennel. Place half the orange rind and 2 pieces star anise on top of fennel. Fill jar with remaining fennel, using the back of a clean spoon to pack it down. Leave 3/4 inch of space beneath the rim.
-
Pour hot liquid over fennel leaving a small gap at top. Repeat for 2nd batch.
- Ready in 3-5 days
