    Can substitute cider vinegar or rice vinegar for palm vinegar.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    If you don't have time to make the sweet and sour turmeric pickles from this book, this pickle will work. However, that's the main advantage in my opinion; the other pickle recipe is much more complex and wonderful.
