	Branston Pickle 01

		Branston Pickle 1 medium carrot, cut into 1/8 inch cubes 1 cup rutabaga, cut into 1/8 inch cubes 2 cloves garlic, minced 6 dates, pitted and cut into 1/8 inch cubes 3 cauliflower florets, finely chopped 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped 1 medium apple, finely chopped 1 medium zucchini, finely chopped 5 sweet gherkins, finely chopped 1/2 lb dark brown sugar 1 tsp salt juice of a lemon 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar caramel colouring or Kitchen Bouquet Combine all ingredients except caramel colouring in a saucepan. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to a simmer and cook until rutabaga is cooked but still slightly crunchy. Add enough caramel colouring until colour is dark brown. Bottle and seal. I suspect the flavour will improve if aged for a few weeks before using.
