In a Pickle(ing) Mood
For our first stab at pickling we chose four funky flavors (dill, dill/mustard, crushed pepper/Huy Fong Sriracha, & Garlic/Dill.
We did a blanching technique that speeds up the pickling process and protects the flavor (blanching is boiling for 1 minutes then submerging in ice water until cold.) These should be ready to eat in about a week or so. We got the pickling bug from the latest issue of ReadyMade Magazine.

Be prepared to fail. Failure is not only necessary to personal growth, it’s recommened, encouraged even. Through our failures we learn from our mistakes. Those bruises we pick up along the way may tarnish the ego, but they strengthen the craft.
