I have peeled a frankly RIDICULOUS number of shallots today. #pickling
Spices are mustard seeds, whole pepper corns, and Zimbabwe black chillies. 2/3rds filled with white vinegar and a little water, boiled. Topped up with malt vinegar and a little water, boiled.

The jar closed and open.

"Ro," you may say, "no one needs to see this many photographs of shallots in a jar!"

I beg to differ.
