I gotta agree, a #Caesar may be the world's most perfect #cocktail.

Olives are new to me, though. @jwz occasionally posted "What's On My Bloody Mary?" and some of the ones I've run into in pubs/restaurants seemed up that alley. Dill pickle and #pickled #asparagus were some of the least-strange (and most tasty!) ones.

Anyway, enjoy!

I stumbled across a beet growing in my unalloted #allotment today. Put them in months ago and they never came up - until they did. This one was pretty big but had green shoulders that I trimmed. Now it is an #pickled beet. Mrs. Bluedragon forbade lacto-fermenting after The Incident (strange odours noticed, emergency response units dispatched; I can't get into it) . Looked for a vinegar brine recipe. They all started "Take 10 lbs of beets..." Oddly no recipe for a single beet. So I winged it.

The spoils of today’s trip to the local outdoor market: #pickled jalapeños, pickled onions, picked tomatoes, and strawberry rhubarb #jam. Not shown: 3 bears of honey and a spatchcocked chicken.

June the First – another 30 days?

I'm going to be aiming for another month of painting each day. Today it was so hot out that I opted to prune a branch from the rhododendron...[…]

Some of my #homemade #Asian #pickled #mustard - it's a longtime #Cultural #fermented #Food & we eat it from jar as snacks & also cook with it. Almost every Asian household kitchen has a jar of it - homemade or store bought.

i've been eating a lot of spicy food as i've lost my sense of taste (hopefully temporarily) and it's just nice to feel something rather than eating flavourless nutrient paste.
luckily August 2022 Bec made 1 jar of spicy #pickled cucumber spears with 3x the usual amount of chilli 'just to see'. i can breathe through my nose for the first time this month. thank you, agent of chaos.

my beetroot #pickled eggs have come to fruition. always a banger

valentines gift for someone who is curious about the idea of a #pickled egg but uncertain whether she'd like them and has therefore never wanted to commit to a whole jar

I made #pickled pink #onions and it was the #simplest thing ever and they are freaking fantastic on a snappy, natural casing #hotdog. Throwing some on salad with olives later.

Just ate a whole glass of grandma's #homemade #pickled dill cucumbers 🥒 ... 🙄 ... gosh, how I've missed having a shelf full of pickles, just the way you like them. There'll be so much work in the #veggie #garden this year ... but I'll personally take care of the cuke situation and the pickling. Anyone got some favourite #SecretIngredients to share? 😁

No food coloring needed for these beet-marinated eggs! 🥚✨

The eggs are soaked in a brining mixture of beet juice, sugar, vinegar, and salt. The flavor is usually more sweet than salty, with a little bit of tartness and earthiness from the vinegar and beet juice.

Pickled eggs, and beet-marinated eggs, are common in German and Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine.

the #pickled beetroot i made with a recipe from a vinegar company (surprise - very vinegar forward) has mellowed from 'I Am Consuming Straight Vinegar' to 'Slightly More Acidic Than Expected Pickled Beetroot' after 6 months on the shelf :blobcatthumbsup: proof that ignoring your problems will sometimes fix them

Got the #pickled beetroot labels sorted for next year

@arniepix I put the grape leaves on top (oak leaves work too) to discourage mold and (via the tannin) keep the pickles crisp. Haven't tried them on the bottom, next year maybe both. We still have about 20 head of cabbage under the low hoops, along with the kale, arugala, chard and lettuce. Will need to get them out of there and fermenting soon, so thanks for the inspiration!!

I finally decanted last months #sauerkraut...

It seems that I did not take notes this time... 🥺 How does that happen?

Off the top of my head, I remember it vaguely as two honking big cabbages, one or two heads of garlic, one cake of dried laver seaweed (those are the black flecks), A fistful or two of dried anchovies, and a fistful or two of dried shrimp (the cheapest little ones), and a few grape leaves to line the bottom of the crock.

There might also be some spices...

Definitely NOT vegan. Not even kosher.

The salt was probably 2% of the weight of the cabbage and garlic?

Anyway, it's pretty delish! Just a bit softer than I would like. More grape leaves next time?

Since my #garden sleeps in winter, #canning #pickled #veggies helps me enjoy my #homegrown #harvest throughout the year. Opened a jar of these yesterday and I am happy with the results. Instead of dilly beans, I made a brine with tarragon and oregano. Herbalicious!

I #pickled some serrano #peppers with purple #onions, #garlic, white #mushrooms, and #cilantro. The #vinegar washed the blue out of the onions and into the garlic! I assume that's what happened, although, i guess it could be a chemical reaction?? Idk. Pretty cool though! Thx for looking
