Pickled red cabbage and a wander around my garden

 The other day Tony and I popped over to Northallerton.  While we were there I bought a beautiful fresh red cabbage. Quarter of it was used the same day in a stir fry. Yesterday I shredded half and pickled it in a sweet vinegar made using my own saved coriander seeds and some mustard seeds from a friend. I added a couple of fresh bay leaves to each jar and once cool I popped the bars into the fridge. Next year I hope to put a cupboard in the garage for storing pickles and jams. My garden continues to provide me with beautiful fresh veg and it won't be long before the sowing starts again

  3. I always enjoy a wander around your productive garden, Cherie. I have never tried pickling red cabbage but I am currently making some Christmas chutney. I like the idea of a cupboard especially for home made pickles and jams.
