Smokin' Hot Pickled Okra


Ingredients:
iii 1/2 lb medium sized okra
iii cups water
2 1/2 cups white vinegar
1/2 loving cup apple tree cider vinegar
1/4 loving cup pickling salt
2/3 loving cup minced dill
half dozen large cloves garlic
half dozen teaspoons chipotle flakes
iii teaspoons xanthous mustard seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons celery seed

Directions:
Bring the water, vinegars in addition to common salt to a boil. Prep the lids/jars.  I highly recommend using broad oral fissure jars. Okra is bulky in addition to I was able to gibe to a greater extent than inward the broad oral fissure jars than the regular ones. Fill each jolt tightly amongst okra. Evenly split all of the spices in addition to garlic betwixt half dozen pint jars. Top amongst dill.



Pour inward the boiling vinegar mixture, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Poke downwardly whatever okra that has floated likewise closed to the top. Close the jars in addition to procedure for 10 minutes inward a hot H2O bath. Allow to sit down at to the lowest degree i calendar week earlier eating.

Yield: close half dozen pints

Note: H5N1 bully rootage for canning data is the Blue Book lead to preserving. I highly recommend it for learning how to can. Here is a bunch of other canning books in addition to equipment I uncovering useful.





My thoughts:
While September is mildly depressing betwixt memories of heading dorsum to schoolhouse in addition to the noesis that autumn in addition to its bitter cousin, wintertime is only some the corner, I arrive at similar September's produce. H5N1 lot of my summertime favorites (peaches, nectarines, plums, tomatoes, berries) are withal available but I am also able to uncovering wintertime squash, Brussels sprouts, apples, pears in addition to some of the best okra I've seen inward ages. I know okra is some what polarizing but I dearest it. Cooked (or pickled) properly, it doesn't accept whatever of the dread producing ooze in addition to is incredibly fresh in addition to crisp. This recipe is some what nontraditional but I dearest anything smoky spicy then I used chipotle pepper flakes rather than ruby in addition to it added a whole novel marking of flavour to the okra. I added celery in addition to mustard seed because they are 2 of my favorite spices in addition to I intend they added a fresh flavour which is ever welcome when canning.
