TAKE the closest and whitest cauliflowers you can get, and pull them in bunches, and spread them on an earthen dish, and lay salt all over them, let them stand for three days to bring out all the water, then put them in earthen jars, and pour boiling salt and water upon them, and let them stand all night, then drain them on a hair sieve, and put them into glass jars, and fill up your jars with distilled vinegar, and tie them close down with leather.
