Pickling Onions

[Herbsman.]

No idea about preserving in oil but I know that you shouldn't preserve garlic. It can give you a nasty dose of food poisoning which is a shame cos I quite fancy pickled garlic cloves.

botulism!

still eating them and they're lovely

though the shallots in white balsamic are a bit weird tbh

In what way weird aqua? I'm interested to know for future pickling experiments. I was afraid my balsamics wouldn't soften up but they're pretty tasty. The larger ones are quite tart, in a nice pickly way, and the smaller ones are sweet and softer.

botulism!

Indeed! My boss ended up with a small dose of that the other week and I put it down to the pickled garlic she'd been scoffing with olives which she thought were the culprit.

Surely she should have been rubbing the garlic into her face. Free botox treatment innit
