Homemade Giardiniera.

So.  I eat giardiniera like it's a side dish, not a condiment or topping.  I can eat way too much, way too fast, and I get really excited about it.  I decided to give this a whirl and I used a recipe from one of my favorite blogs, shutterbean.

I cut the vegetables large, and I only used cauliflower, carrots, and celery, omitting the red and yellow peppers and onions to keep it super simple.  It was super-easy, and after 24 hours it was already delicious.  I can eat the entire recipe in about 3 days if I don't have to share.  I also threw in some hardboiled eggs, so we'll see how this rogue egg-pickling experiment goes....
