Taiwanese Pickle Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare stockpot/canner and jars as directed in step-by-step instructions
• Tie pickling spices in a square of cheesecloth, creating a spice bag.
• Combine vinegar, water, sugar, pickling salt and spice bag in a medium stainless steel saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. Reduce heat and boil gently for 15 minutes, until spices have infused the liquid.
• Place 1 bay leaf, 1 garlic clove, 1/2 tsp mustard seeds and 1 head of dill into each jar. Pack cucumber slices into hot jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Add rounded 1/8 tsp Pickle Crisp® Granulates. Ladle hot pickling liquid into jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles; re-measure headspace. If needed, add more cucumbers to meet recommended headspace. Wipe rim; center lid on jar. Screw band until fingertip-tight.
• Process filled jars in boiling water for 15 minutes. Remove stockpot lid. Wait 5 minutes, then remove jars, cool and store.

Steps:

• Heat a wok over high heat until hot. Drizzle the oil down the sides to coat, and then add the garlic and chiles and stir-fry quickly. Add the mustard greens and stir-fry. Sprinkle the sugar over the greens and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar has completely dissolved and has been absorbed by the vegetables. Set aside.
• Split the rolls and stuff with the stir-fried pickled mustard greens. Top with cilantro and peanuts.
