This is a pickle of barbecued spiral wrack or bladderwrack that can be eaten on its own or added to other dishes in the same way you would use capers. They add a sour and salty taste to any dishes they're added to.
In the meantime, wash the spiral wrack with three changes of fresh water.
Bring a pan of fresh water to a boil. Add the sprial wrach and dill, blanching for 20 seconds. Use tongs to immediately tansfer to a bolw of iced water to refresh.
Drain the wrack, arrange over the hot barbecue coals and flame briefly (do not leave too long or they will dry out and not be juicy).
Pack the barbecued wrack into a preserving jar.
Add in the sea salt, horseradish and dill fronds.
Mix together the seaweed vinegar and water, pour over the contents of the jar, ensuring the wrack is completely covered and there are no bubbles inside.
Secoure with a vinegar proof lid and put in a cool, dark, place for at least 3 days to mature.
