Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbls Peppercorns
  • 2 Tbls Mustard Seeds
  • 1 Tbls Allspice berries

Method
 

  1. Mix all ingredients and place in an airtight jar, keep for up to 6 months in a cool, dry place.
  2. I add 1 - 2 tsp of the pickling spice blend to each pint jar. Then squeeze in all the goodies for picking.

Notes

If you want to add a bit of heat, you can add 1 tsp. crushed chili flakes to the mix. I usually triple this batch when I'm preserving large quantities. Can be stored in a dry, cool cupboard for up to 6 months.
