Giardiniera

Directions

  1. After chopping all the vegetables, divide the slower cooking veg: cauliflower and carrots, and the quicker cooking veg: everything else, and set aside.

  2. Bring the white wine, vinegar, salt, and oil to a boil in a large pot. Boil the slower cooking veg for 3 minutes, then add the quicker cooking veg for another 3 minutes.

  3. Drain the vegetables reserving the cooking liquid.

  4. Drop a bay leaf in the bottom of a 1L mason jar and 500 mL mason jar, then pack both jars with the vegetables as tightly as you can. Fill to the brim with cooking liquid. Close the lid tightly and store upside down to seal and cool.

  5. Let it sit at least 5 days before eating. Once opened, it will last in the fridge for 5-7 days.
