Matki is a type of pulse commonly used in India. It is also sold as Moth Beans (pronounced ‘mote’). It can be cooked just like mung beans or lentils but is delicious (and nutritious) when sprouted. You could substitute sprouted mung beans if you can’t obtain matkhi. To sprout the matkhi, first...

Pickled ginger is a necessity when it comes to sushi, but it can also be used any time there’s a need to accent your food. Ingredients 2 ounces ginger root 1/3 cup rice vinegar 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp soy sauce Directions 1. Peel ginger root using a teaspoon to get around all the nooks and...

A way of preserving this seasonal green delicacy. Ingredients 2 quarts green almonds (nuts formed inside but still lacking hard shells) 1/3 cup water 1/3 cup white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon honey 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or another non-iodized salt) 1 or 2 sprigs fresh dill (or fennel leaves)...

Easy to make and very fishy tasting! These parcels make a good snack. I used dill in the filling as it was all I had in terms of green herbs but I think the delicate dill taste was rather overpowered. Parsley or coriander might be a better choice. Ingredients (makes 3) 3 sheets of filo...

I love pickled herring and pickled boiling onions right out of the jar. Quick pickled red onion for tacos along with pickled jalapenos. What are some of your favorites?

I promised to try out this recipe by Chef James Martin posted by @Elawin for the November spice challenge: Vanilla cured salmon with cucumber ketchup, charred cucumber and pickled ginger. I cured the salmon using table salt not sea salt (mainly because I didn't have enough sea salt). I used soft...

I usually make a plan when I pickle. This was not one of those times. I had bought a bunch of asparagus the way I often buy things: it was there and it was cheap, so I bought it. But, after 2 days in the vegetable drawer, I realized I had to do something with it. So, I pickled it. I started...

I have modified a recipe taken from here. We found that the curried flavour was quite mild and we would prefer something stronger, so I have increased the curry powder quantity added and also the other spice. In addition, instead of adding water to the apple cider vinegar, I have kept it 100%...

@alexander has asked me for the recipe for the Pickled Eggs that I posted elsewhere. So here is my modified recipe, taken from here. I found that adding the beetroot water from the cooking, whilst increasing the colour, diluted the pickled effect for us, and next time around will not use the...

I made pickled eggs and here's the video I made showing what I did, I really hope it inspires someone to try, it's really easy and pickled eggs are delish!!! My first jar is almost empty already. It's the first cooking video I have made so hope to improve with practice:- I hope to make more...

Melon is the current ingredient for the The CookingBites Recipe Challenge. I've been thinking about savoury recipes for melon and came across a few recipes for pickled melon. There are, perhaps surprisingly, even more recipes for pickled watermelon rind - which might be fun to try sometime...

How to use up all that cabbage and kale I bought for the The CookingBites Recipe Challenge? I'm being purposely pretentious with this recipe and enjoying every moment. This recipe requires minimal cooking. Its all about colour and careful cutting and assembly. Clockwise from the top: pickled...

You could try making pickled redcurrants. Great with cheese in a Ploughman's lunch. This requires less sugar than jelly: 150ml white vinegar 75g sugar 2 allspice berries 3-4cm piece cinnamon stick 1 clove 275g redcurrants Place the vinegar, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and clove in a small...

I've got a jar of pickled walnuts languishing in my cupboard. Its a curious ingredient which is (I believe) peculiar to the UK . I've used them in a beef stew and also sprinkled on the top of cauliflower cheese. Anyone got ideas about what else to do with them.
