Recycling a Costco-sized pretzel barrel into a refrigerator pickle barrel gets you the most spicy garden mix for your chopping time. In went a head of cauliflower, a pound of carrots, a bunch of celery, a few chili peppers, and some pickling cucumbers for good measure. I've always wanted to try those myself... If this comes out well I'll try a fancier pickling liquid... plain old white vinegar, salt, and chilis does a pretty good job on its own.

this makes me salivate just looking at it.
ReplyDeleteThe pickling cucumbers are great! They came out super-crisp.
