- Wash and core cabbage; cut in 2-inch cubes. Peel turnip and carrots; cut lengthwise in quarters, then crosswise in 2-inch sections. Peel cucumbers; cut in 2-inch slices. Cut celery stalks in 2-inch sections.
- Wipe all vegetables with cheesecloth; then spread out to dry for four hrs. Transfer vegetables to a crock or possibly jar.
- Bring water to a boil. Slice ginger root and add in. Add in dry red peppers, peppercorns, sherry and salt. Let simmer 1 minute; then remove from heat and let cold.
- Pour over vegetables and cover tightly. Let stand (unrefrigerated) 3 to 4 days in cold weather, only 2 days in summer.
- NOTE: The marinade can be used again to pickle other vegetables if 1/4 c. sherry, 2 tsp. brown sugar and 1/2 tsp. salt are added.
