jok 3,266 Posted October 9, 2024 Report Share Posted October 9, 2024 For what it’s worth. Net of onions /shallots. 2 big bowls. Decent knife. Wife out of the house. Not recommended in the lounge. Top and tail the bulbs totally skinning them. They end up in one of the bowls with all the husks/skins in the other. Cover in cold water and generously salt. Split chillis are an option but these can be added to the storage jars. Leave for at least 24 hours. Sterilise your jars. Completely drain the bulbs and transfer to the jars. I use spiced malt vinegar to top up the jars. Put them away for at least 6 weeks then enjoy. How could it be easier? Jok. 4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
