Ingredients

  • 1/2 head red cabbage
  • 4 shallots
  • 3 jalapenos
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large wedge brie (about half a pound)
  • 1-2 baguettes (or six rolls)
  • Pickled mustard seeds

Method

  • Slice cabbage, shallots and jalapenos, mix together, and then put into large Mason jar.
  • Bring water and vinegar to a boil.
  • Add salt, brown sugar, and black pepper to jar.
  • Pour boiling vinegar mix into jar, and seal the lid.
  • Shake jar well.
  • Let jar cool to room temperature, then stick in the fridge.
  • You should make pickles at least 6 hours in advance, but its best if you make it a day or two ahead of time (same goes for the pickled mustard seeds).
  • Slice rolls; I suggest focaccia or ciabatta.
  • Slice brie.
  • Build sandwich, from the bottom up: brie, mustard seeds, mixed pickles.
  • Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in foil, refrigerate for up to two days and allow to come to room temperature before serving.
