83 and sunny
When you wake up on a day like this…
…all you want to do is make some pickles.
Not really, but that’s what I did, because I’m preparing for the summer of Consistently Awesome BBQ. And what do you need next to a gorgeous, dripping, cheese-globbed burger? A crispy delicious pickle!
Sterlize jars, boil vinegar and water mix (50/50 makes a tangy pickle; go with less vinegar if you’re more mild), add whole garlic cloves, pepper flakes, some fresh dill, a few bay leaves, and half a tomatillo pepper to each jar, along with the freshly washed and cut cucumbers, then pour the liquid mix in, seal up the jars and refrigerate. In as few as three days, they’re perfection.
