-------- ------------ --------------------------------
10             small fresh turnips -- or 5 large (2 1/4 pounds)
3              small beets -- (8 1/2 ounces)
1                     chile -- green or red, cup into 3/8-inch slices
3             stalks celery -- tender stalks, cut into 3/4-inch slices
1 1/4           cups distilled white vinegar
3               cups warm water
                        fine sea salt

Peel the turnips and beets, halve them if they are not small, and cut them
into slices 1/4-inch thick. Place in a large mixing bowl and sprinkle with
1 teaspoon salt. Stir well, cover, and set aside to marinate overnight at
room temperature.

The following day, transfer the vegetables and their juices to a
sterilized 1 1/2 to 2 quart jar. Add the chile and celery, followed by 3
Tablespoons salt, the vinegar, and the water. If needed, add more water
and vinegar to fill the jar (two parts water to one part vinegar) to
within 3/4 inch of the rim. Seal the jar, shake if gently to dissolve the
salt, and place in a well-lit spot. After 3 to 4 days, the pickles should
be ready. They will keep somewhere cool and dark for up to 1 month.

Makes 1 1/2 quarts (to 2 quarts), about 24 one-quarter cup servings.

AuthorNote: This is a cinch to make, but must be prepared over two days.
It is sharp and not too complex in flavor, perfect for serving with
unctuous [favorites], a tagine, or hummus.
