Burdock Pickles (Refrigerator) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 cups burdock root, cut into finger-sized pieces
    1 cup brown rice vinegar
    1 cup water
    2 tablespoons allspice
    2 tablespoons bay leaves
    1 tablespoon star anise
    2 tablespoons fresh ginger, sliced
    2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
    1 teaspoon clove
    1 teaspoon salt
Preparation
    1. Steam the burdock on a steamer rack over water 40 minutes or until tender enough to pierce with a fork. You may pressure cook for 15 minutes instead if you prefer.
    2. Drain the burdock and put into jar.
    3. Place a fork in the jar to prevent it from shattering.
    4. Mix the vinegar and the water; bring to a boil.
    5. Pour this over the burdock and stir in the remaining ingredients.
    6. Remove the fork, cover and refrigerate at least 12 hours before serving. Lasts for weeks when refrigerated.
