RECIPE: Purslane Quick Pickles


  • Author: Catherine Walthers

Ingredients

  • purslane
  • water
  • vinegar


Instructions

  1. Mix up a brine by combining vinegar and water, half and half. Any kind of vinegar may be used; each will add its unique flavor.
  2. Add any herbs and spices you like, somewhat sparingly, as the flavors tend to become stronger in the pickle. Salt is optional, as is some form of sweetener.
  3. Pack the purslane loosely into a jar and cover with the brine. Leave at room temperature and use that day, or refrigerate overnight or longer, up to several weeks.
