<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis recipe is similar to Giardiniera<\/a>, except it swaps the Italian spices for some horseradish. Both are delicious and make great homemade food gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One word of warning:<\/strong> these need to sit at least 4 if not 6 weeks in the jars for the flavors to fully develop. Otherwise some of the stronger flavors will overpower the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pickles are the best thing to begin learning how to can, all you need to know how to do is boil water. With jams you need to master the art of gelling and with non-acidic foods you need to use a different method for food safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have never canned before, or need a refresher, check out the Ball website for more information on the boiling water canning process<\/a>. It details the tools and terminology you need to know before beginning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I had a bunch of carrots, pickling cucumbers and purple radishes on hand when I made these. Hence, my mix is a bit on the purplish side. You can use what you have, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The sugar is not the main preserving agent in pickling brine. That duty falls to the salt and vinegar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sugar is usually added for flavor. It can be omitted, by I would not recommend it in this recipe. It is not enough to make the pickles sweet, it is there to help balance the spicy and salty flavors in the brine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I have not tried a substitute in this recipe, but you could try some honey or maple syrup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Use wherever and whenever you would serve pickles or pickle relish:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of those might seem strange to you, but you might want to give it a try to see what you have been missing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pickling vegetables (and fruits) has been around for millennia as a way to preserve the harvest for later.
