pickling spice holder

thank you for all the useful suggestions have ordered muslin enough to last my chutney making time

I use muslin but I had never though of the tea leaf strainer- what a great idea!

I made a little bag out of an old net curtain years ago. it's still going strong.

Muslin or you can buy a ball tea leaf strainer (made to hold leaf tea) which would also do the job.

I use bits cut off old baby muslins - from the dgc.

thank you what a clever idea am off to find some on ebay

I bought a yard of muslin years ago and each year cut a little bit off. Seems to go on forever.
