Method

In a large saucepan, bring the water, vinegar and sugar to the boil.

In a separate dry frying pan, toast the spices for a few minutes until aromatic, then drop into the vinegar liquid. Remove from the heat, allow to cool and then pass through a fine sieve. Pour into a sterilized jar with whatever vegetables you want to pickle, and leave to preserve for a minimum of 2 weeks.
