When I was a kid in Scotland, one of my favorites at the dinner table was pickled cauliflower which I called wee trees due to the shape.
If my memory serves me correctly the pickled cauliflower color was lighter than malt vinegar, which I believed up to this time was the only other ingredient, now I see that a pickling solution is used.
The question now is........ For the totally uninformed in the culinary arts, can anyone tell me what is used for the most basic pickling solution? I don't remember seeds of any description and certainly no beetroot for colour.
