Instructions

1
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets, chopped celery, chopped carrots, and chopped red bell pepper.
2
Sprinkle salt over the vegetables, mix well, and let them sit for 12 hours to draw out moisture.
3
After 12 hours, rinse the vegetables thoroughly under cold water and dry them very well.
4
Place a bay leaf in a large mason jar, then pack the dried vegetables into the jar.
5
Pour vinegar and water over the vegetables until they are fully submerged.
6
Finish by drizzling olive oil over the top.
7
Seal the jar, give it a gentle shake, and refrigerate for at least 2-3 days before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
