Has anyone ever been this wrong?

"Obviously no one is forcing anyone to only consume #pickles, and if that is indeed what your taste buds crave, then congrats on being the moment! But put pickles everywhere and they cease to be a treat, the shining zinging bite to zap you into whatever else you’re #eating. Maybe they should stay a sometimes #food."

Eater · Is There Too Much Pickle?By Jaya Saxena

I'm making a couple of jars of sweet lime pickle. The recipe says to cover them with cheese cloth. I think that, in the two weeks it takes for them to ferment the desert would completely dry the pickles out. So I'm just opening the jars a couple times a day to let the pressure out. #food #cooking #pickles

I've made this ⬆️⬆️⬆️ pickle at last, with 3 makrut limes. 3 looked enough as I was cutting them, but of course they cooked down. Never mind, it was an experiment anyway, to see whether they would be a little less bitter than other times I have pickled makrut limes.

They will be spicy!

Opening in 1 week.

I like the look of this recipe for bitter citrus as it boils the fruit first. Normally I prefer not to cook things before pickling, but makrut limes can keep their bitterness even after allowing the pickle to mature. So I am going to try it, but using the Ramdev Aachar spice mix that I spoke about a while ago.

It is quite common to use oil in Indian pickles in this way, and in fact it can help with preserving qualities (see one of the comments on the recipe).

I have a lot on this arvo but hopefully I will get to it this evening.

You have got to make these pickled onions, they're super easy and so good!
You'll need:
3 smallish red onions
3 habanero peppers*
2 tsp salt
1 lemon
White vinegar
Water
A wide mouth quart jar.

Peel the onions and slice into thin half moons. Pack the first onion into the jar then chop one of the habaneros and add it. Repeat until the jar is full. Add the salt, squeeze in the juice of the lemon then pour in vinegar until the jar is ⅓ full. 1/2 #food #recipe #pickles

Weekend cooking: homemade curry-flavour cauliflower pickles. Very forgiving and takes almost no work, just a day of waiting.

Apple vinegar, some salt, *way* more sugar than you think, two-three teaspoons of curry powder. A small chili works great (I forgot this time). Briefly boil the cauliflower, combine with vinegar mix, press down with a lid or something and put in the fridge for a day.

One medium cauliflower makes enough pickles for a week for the two of us.
