  top to keep the vegetables submerged. Cover & refrigerate for 8 hours
  or overnight. Drain, rinse in several changes of water & drain again.
  Meanwhile, place 4 sprigs of basil in a small jar. Add whole garlic &
  just enough oil to cover.  Cover tightly & refrigerate for 8 hours or
  overnight. Prepare pickling brine by boiling the water, vinegar &
  sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring till the sugar is dissolved & then
  keep hot until ready to use. Sterilize 4 500mL canning jars.  In each
  one, place a basil sprig, garlic clove & 1/2 ts mustard seeds.
  Without forcing, pack the vegetables into the jars leaving 3/4"

  Remove any air bubbles by sliding a rubber spatula around the edge of
  the jar; wipe rims & fir lids. Process in a boiling water bath for 20
  minutes.  Remove, cool, label & store.
