Steps:

• Combine vinegar, water, sugar, mustard seeds, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high, and boil, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute.

LOWCOUNTRY PICKLED COLESLAW

Steps:

• Make the slaw: Put the chopped and diced vegetables in a bowl or other container that will fit in the refrigerator.
• Make the dressing: Crush the garlic, and with the side of a knife work the salt into the clove until it makes a rough paste. Add the garlic paste, ginger, vinegar, oil and 1/3 cup water to a saucepan and bring to a low boil. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes, stirring now and then. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 1 or 2 minutes, then pour over the vegetables, tossing well to combine. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Just before serving, toss with the lime juice and a few grinds of black pepper. Taste and add salt if needed.

CRISP PICKLED COLE SLAW

Steps:

• Finely shred the 2 different color cabbages(I use a mandolin, but a very sharp knife does just fine).
• Slice the peppers thinly and chop into small pieces.
• Cut the onion into 4 pieces.
• Thinly slice the four pieces and separate into slices.
• Finely julienne the 2 carrots(or more if desired) and cut into small pieces or grate them on a grater.
• Place all the chopped and shredded vegetables into a large bowl.
• In a small saucepan combine the sugar, vinegars, salt and celery seed.
• Bring to a boil.
• Boil for 3 minutes.
• Pour the hot vinegar over the shredded and chopped vegetables.
• Combine well.
• Transfer into large jars to store in the refrigerator.
• Cool before serving.
• This keeps for a very, very long time in the frig and actually gets better after "pickling" for several days.
