Pour inwards the vinegar mixture. Close the jars together with physical care for for 10 minutes inwards a hot H2O bath. Allow to sit 1 calendar calendar week before eating.

*If yous want to tin lone the order half, preserve the remainder for something else.

**If yous convey 12 oz tall jelly jars yous tin forcefulness out larger stalks. I couldn't regain them.

Yield: well-nigh half dozen wide oral cleft pints's worth of asparagus order halves. I went ahead together with pickled the bottom halves together with that yielded shut to other iv wide oral cleft pints.

Note: Influenza A virus subtype Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 bully beginning for canning information is the Blue Book postulate to preserving. I highly recommend it for learning how to can. Here is a bunch of other canning books together with equipment I regain useful.

My thoughts:

We industrial plant life shut to belatedly flavour asparagus at the farmers marketplace set this calendar calendar week together with I was together with in addition to thus excited! I'd taught myself how to tin subsequently asparagus flavour lastly twelvemonth together with I've e'er wanted to construct asparagus pickles. They are together with in addition to thus goodness silent together with in addition to thus expensive at the store. Pickling is a bully get-go canning projection because yous move the exercise inwards but yous don't convey to motility terribly careful. No fruit that mightiness scorch, no eyeballing thickening, exactly dissolving table common salt inwards (cheap!) vinegar together with water. Easy-peasy! I made these pickles amongst my existent capable intern, Jillian, who had never canned before together with it was a breeze. The pickles convey a bully flavour together with I swear, the hardest exercise is cutting them to match into the jars.
