In this programme Jamie explains the history of pickling and preserving. If you have grown your own produce you'll want to save it and keep it for as long as you can or use the excess when you have a bumper crop. Jamie shows you how with a super-quick 'mothership' pickle recipe which can be used for pickling anything. He pickles courgettes with mint and chilli and aubergines with garlic and oregano. Jamie also makes a fiery chilli chutney with Welsh rarebit and steak and chips on the barbeque with Jamie's homemade tomato ketchup.
