  • Here is the recipe I made
    2 Large Cauliflower heads cut finely
    1 large Cucumber diced
    3-4diced onions
    3 Tbsp of salt
    Mix all the above to combine and let it drain in a colander overnight or 24hrs
    Rinse the mix off the night day and set aside
    Combine in a large pot
    3 c Apple Cider Vinegar
    2 c White Vinegar
    3 c brown sugar
    2 Tbsp dry mustard
    2 Tbsp Turmeric
    1 1/4 c water
    heat to simmer then add
    8 diced Gherkins
    the cauli mix
    bring back to the simmer and cook until just tender
    Mix 1/2 c corn flour
    1/4 c water
    use this to thicken the mix, you may need more to get the thickness you want. Refer to the video for tips.
    I steam-canned mine for 10 minutes but it's a pickle so you don't have to do this step. Once open store in the fridge.
    ENJOY

    I make Sweet Mustard Pickles following in the tradition of my wonderful grandfather. It would be his birthday today he would have been 137 but passed at 84. We lived next door but one and grandad made his pickles in an outside (end of the verandah) kitchen because Nan hated the smell in her house. People who visited never left without a bottle of pickles. He made them with chokos, green tomatoes, cauliflower or whatever was in season. I usually only make them with chokos mainly and add available vegetables for colour more than anything. My MIL has my pickles on toast every morning and with her corned silverside sandwiches, and cheese sandwiches. I love to get hold of a cauliflower and add that but they are so expensive. I made over 60 jars of them this year (some with chilli) but that will be the last for a while as I have not been well of late but on the road to my own self. Love to you and your family.

    Hi Stacy, I love piccalilli but it’s slightly different to your version. I’m in the UK and our jars of it have the veggies slightly bigger, also has whole little silverskin onions in it, so definitely a lot chunkier than yours. We tend to have it with pork pie or cold cuts, never heard of anybody having it on toast and I’ve also never heard of Chow Chow. I think I’d quite like the small cut version as it would be easier to spread on a sarny 

    Have been watching Chelsea at Little Mtn Ranch. Her garden has burgeoned with the longer days in the north here so she has been making pickles like mad before the tomatoes come in. You two are so inspiring to watch. She had a red steer get into her garden so his date with the butcher got moved up a week or two. My friends who have naughty sheep or goats send them to freezer camp.

    Thank you for taking us along for this one. Whether you call them piccalilly, chow-chow or mustard pickle, I love it. And since they stopped selling in the supermarkets here in California, I have to order it online, where it's about $US16 for 250g. A couple of years ago I asked for and received some for Christmas, and I eked it out a little at a time. I never thought of spreading it on toast (and at that price, I never would). So maybe I need to make own.
    A rutabaga is similar to a turnip, but the flesh is yellow instead of white and they're bigger. The flavor is sweeter without the peppery taste that turnips have. When cooked, they aren't as watery as turnips. I love them steamed and mashed like potatoes.
    In England and some parts of Europe they're known as Swedes. I believe in Scotland they call them neeps.

    I've been making piccalili for ever! My Mum and grandmother made beautiful pickles, so I grew up with having pickle with everything! And yes, I eat it on toast too - but with cheese if I have it. I've been using a recipe out of a very old Edmonds cook book for over 50 years, I've tweaked it over the years because I've developed allergies to all the nightshades, so don't add any capsicums or chillie type things. I had several big jars of piccalili given to me last year, but theyéralmost gone, so thanks for the inspiration, I'll be grabbing another cheap cauli next week, and pickling with it instead of scoffing it!

    I love Mustard pickle ( what I grew up knowing it as). I moved from the UK to Germany 12 years ago and missed it. Found a recipe and made it.
    In the U.K we get Sarsons white vinegar...what this called for. Here in Germany there are dozens of brands and types...so I went with a brand that sold well. Made my Mustard pickle, jarred it and left it 6 months...oh boy...sorry I meant OHHHH BOOOYYYY! It blew my head off like the strongest Phaal (hottest, mouth numbing curry). Turns out, the vinegar needed diluting 6 parts water to 1 part vinegar! You could have stripped paint with it!
    Love your videos, recipes, and accent. My wife and I had our first holiday together in AU and NZ (free flights as i used to travel A LOT for work and saved up miles) and we LOVED NZ so much (shame I was refused a visa...damn my specialised skills you dont need).

Combine 6 cups of vinegar 2 cups of sugar 1 tbsp of dried mustard 1 tbsp Ginger simmer for 10 minutes add veggies and simmer for about 15 minutes back into pint jars for 5 minutes. I also do a thick chunk which I call end of the garden and I like to use it like a muffaletta Gardena pickle I chunk my vegetables large cabbage cucumber green tomatoes whatever you have left in the garden at the end of the season I make a two to one ratio of vinegar to water one add sugar and salt to your taste.

I wrote away for a Sarson's pickling booklet 40 years ago and I still use it. One year I added a chopped cooking apple just because I had one handy and have added an apple ever since. I am very hit-and-miss with my ingredients but it always comes out great. My favourite is ladelled on cold sausage sandwiches. Keep up the good work.

    Wow, those cauliflowers were a good buy! I bought one today for $3 and thought I did well, but now not so much.
    My husband loves picalilli and keeps buying it, but won't let me make it because he doesn't think it will be the same and doesn't want to disappoint me by not eating it! So I started to make "Indian spiced pickled cauliflower" (making up the recipe) and he absolutely loves it 😂. I'm going to make your piccalilli recipe and call it chow chow. I bet he'll like that too. I've never seen chow chow in the shops here.

    As a child growing up in the UK the piccalilli we bought from the shops was lovely and tangy and in very big chunks. When we moved to NZ all I could ever find for sale in the shops is piccalilli and chow chow which is far to sweet. I have to hunt out imported Heinz jars from specialist shops. However, even they have stopped leaving big chunks in and the veg is chopped up very small these days.Luckily it is as strongly pickled as i remember it. Not sweet as is so much of NZ made pickle varieties.

    I asked ChatGPT the difference..this is a much better answer....
    Piccalilli and chow-chow are both types of pickled relishes, but they have some distinct differences in terms of ingredients, flavor, and regional variations:
    1. Ingredients:
    • Piccalilli: Typically includes a mix of finely chopped vegetables such as cauliflower, green beans, and onions, often with green tomatoes, gherkins, or cucumbers. The vegetables are usually pickled in a mustard-flavored sauce that gives piccalilli its distinct yellow color.
    • Chow-Chow: Often made with a variety of vegetables, such as green tomatoes, cabbage, onions, peppers, and sometimes beans. The vegetables are pickled in a vinegar-based brine that can be either sweet or tangy, and the color of chow-chow can vary from yellow to green or red depending on the ingredients and region.
    2. Flavor Profile:
    • Piccalilli: Known for its tangy, spicy, and mustard-forward flavor, with a slightly sweet and sour taste.
    • Chow-Chow: Flavor can vary widely but is generally more on the sweet and tangy side. Southern U.S. versions tend to be sweeter, while Northern versions can be more tangy or spicy.
    3. Regional Differences:
    • Piccalilli: Commonly found in the UK and is a traditional British pickle. It is often served as a condiment with cold meats, cheeses, or sandwiches.
    • Chow-Chow: Popular in the United States and Canada, with strong roots in Southern and Appalachian cuisine. It is often served as a topping for hot dogs, hamburgers, or as a side dish with beans and cornbread.
    4. Texture:
    • Piccalilli: Typically has a more uniform, fine chop of vegetables, leading to a smoother texture.
    • Chow-Chow: Often has a chunkier texture with more varied sizes of vegetable pieces, depending on the recipe.
    In summary, while both piccalilli and chow-chow are pickled relishes, piccalilli is more mustard-based with a finer texture and is a British staple, whereas chow-chow varies more in flavor and texture and is more commonly associated with Southern U.S. cuisine.

    Just called sweet mustard pickles here in Aus, my nanna made lots of different ones, just cauliflower, just cucumbers, she also made curried choko pickles which is our families favourite.
    A tip for thickening your pickle, mix your cornflour with a little bit of the cooking liquid, it gives a much nicer finish and consistency to your pickles.

    Hay Stacey you can keep your onions longer by hanging 5hem in stocking legs and tieing a string or using a rubber band between each one so they are not touching. They keep for moths just hang in a cool place. I don't know why it works but it does. It must be pickle or relish week, as l made a b a tch of Tomato relish this week and we are onto our 2nd jar already. You cant beat a relish on fresh buttered bread or crackers. Enjoy your pickles

    Thank you I have been thinking to make some too, love it on toast for a change or with cheese in a sandwich. I call it Picalilli and when made with larger chunks of vege, ChowChow, my mum preferred to make ChowChow. You were wearing a lovely apron today, when you fold it in half and tie it round your waist it is called a pinny . xx
