To Pickle Capsicums

Pick the capsicums just as they are turning red. Make a slit in the sides of each, take out the seeds, throw them into salt and water two days. Drain, put them in glass jars, cover with cold vinegar, cork and stand in a cool place.

They will keep for several years, and as the vinegar is used off cover with fresh vinegar. They may be added to sauces or salads.
