Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.You can buy pickled samphire in jars but I find it's normally pickled beyond recognition and a horrible grey-green colour. As samphire is in season now, simply pour some good-quality wine vinegar over fresh, trimmed samphire and leave it for 24-48 hours in a plastic container or non-reactive bowl firmly covered with cling film. Give the samphire an occasional stir. If you're not eating it immediately, store in a cool place in a sterilised Kilner jar.
