I'm going to make giardiniera - any good recipes?
I've been itching to relive the experience without getting shot at.

I've already started making my own "Claussen" style pickles. I may have to start making my own relish, too. I HAVE pickled veggies in addition to the pickles. My base "cold pack" recipe- Fill quart jar with 50/50 mix water and 5% vinegar. Add: 1 T canning salt, 1 t dill weed, 1/2 t dill seed, 2 cloves of garlic, minced (vary to taste). Shake. Add sliced carrots, onions, cauliflower, pickles (cucumbers grown for pickling, NOT regular cucumbers), etc to your liking. I pack my jars full- very full! Remember that this is a cold-pack recipe, good for about 3-4 weeks in the fridge. It is NOT a processed recipe utilizing boiled/canning technique needed for long-term storage. I see in your pic that there is also mustard seed, peppercorns, some whole allspice, etc. Looks good!

@Bearsfan67 Do you get to Cleveland?

@Budwick I’ve been but it’s been a long time. I’m in mid Michigan these days so it’s a pretty easy trip.

@Budwick Portillo WILL ship, but the price is sky-high.
Cinc- OK - you will have to settle for Skyline chili - or at least add onions and cinnamon to canned stuff. :- )
