Instructions

  1. 1 Crack cardamom seeds and nutmeg with a heavy skillet on a cutting board. Toss them into a saucepan; add caraway seed, cloves, allspice berries, cinnamon sticks, peppercorns, saffron, ginger, turmeric, orange zest and lemon zest. Pour in water and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is reduced by half. Strain out spices and set liquid aside.
  2. 2 Pour honey into a large pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Skim off any foam from the top. Stir in strained liquid and vanilla. Remove from heat and place far from the stove to avoid flare-ups when adding grain alcohol. Slowly stir in grain alcohol. Place the pot back onto the burner over low heat and cover. Heat through, being careful not to boil or even simmer. Remove from heat and let stand overnight with the lid on.
  3. 3 The following day, pour liquid into sterile bottles, seal, and allow to settle for 2 weeks. The longer you let it sit, the clearer it will become and the better it tastes. Serve warm.

  1. 1 Combine cauliflower, onion, carrots, cucumber, beans, and salt in a large bowl and toss well. Leave for 24 hours.
  2. 2 The next day, rinse vegetables thoroughly in several changes of cold water. Drain well in a colander for 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Inspect eight 12-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until picalilli is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  4. 4 Combine flour, curry powder, turmeric, mustard powder, and ginger in a large pot. Gradually stir in 1/2 the vinegar, blending well until a smooth paste without lumps forms. Add remaining vinegar and sugar, mix well, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring continuously. Cook until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Add vegetable mixture and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. 5 Pack picalilli into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any spills. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
  6. 6 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 5 minutes.
  7. 7 Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all).
  8. 8 Leave for 1 month, to allow picalilli to mature, before eating.

Instructions

  1. 1 Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select Sauté function. Add olive oil to the pot and heat for 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. 2 Season chicken thighs with salt. Place chicken, skin-side down, in the hot oil. Cook until skin is golden, 4 to 6 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath several times to prevent skin from sticking to the pot. Turn and cook until other side is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken thighs to a plate.
  3. 3 Add sausage, onion, and bell pepper to the pot. Sauté until onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add rice, paprika, turmeric, cayenne, and saffron. Stir constantly until spices are aromatic and rice becomes translucent and shiny.
  4. 4 Pour in sherry and cook until absorbed, about 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pot. Turn off Sauté setting and place chicken thighs over rice. Turn the pressure regulator to the sealing position; select Manual and set cooking time for 12 minutes at high pressure. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  5. 5 Release pressure using the natural-release method for 10 minutes according to manufacturer's instructions. Turn the pressure regulator to 'venting' and release remaining pressure. Remove the lid, transfer chicken thighs to a clean plate, and pour in tomatoes and peas. Mix well.
  6. 6 Switch to Sauté mode and cook until liquid is mostly evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Top each serving of rice with a chicken thigh.
