For the today's post, I shall post under the category - 'Chutneys and Podis'.
This version of Cabbage pickle is from my mom. In my mom's place, chutneys and pickles are a regular fare and so my mom makes chutneys out of anything and everything :).
After I came to the US, I tried making this pickle and somehow felt that the cabbage smell was over powering and stopped making this pickle. Of late, I have begun making this pickle and are we are thoroughly enjoying it. S says that the overpowering 'cabbagey' smell was the result of my overactive nose in those days :).
Here it is for Day 1 of BM #16.
