PICKLED RAMPS (WILD LEEKS)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Cut away the stringy roots at the bottom of the ramps and then a little bit above the point where the white part ends and the green leaves separate out. Wash the ramps well. You're only going to pickle those white parts with a bit of the green attached, but don't throw out the leaves; save them for another recipe.
• Place 2 clean 1/2-pint canning jars on their sides (it's not necessary to sterilize the jars for this recipe). Lay the ramps in with the white part toward the bottom of the jar. Laying them in with the jar on its side makes it easier to keep the ramps straight so that they will all line up vertically when you set the jar upright.
• Pack the ramps in so tightly that you cannot squeeze in a single ramp more. This will ensure that the ramps stay immersed in the brine rather than floating up out of it. Be sure to leave 1/2-inch headspace between the top of the ramps and the rim of the jar. Trim the ramps if they are too tall.
• Prepare the brine by putting the water, vinegar , honey, and salt in a small saucepan. Stir to combine.
• Add the chile, allspice berries, mustard seeds, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and peppercorns to the liquid mixture.
• Bring the brine to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Pour the hot brine over the ramps, covering them completely but still leaving 1/4- to 1/2-inch headspace. Screw on canning lids.
• Process the pickled ramps in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Wait at least a week for the flavors to develop before sampling. They will be even better after a month.
