New scene today! Eating my delicious pickled veg in the garden on my rubbermaid chair circa 1990’s. Thank you @connor.cooks for teaching me such a simple way to pickle vegetables- a no cook, no fuss method. Below is Connor’s method- I just added some spices. They are so delicious and are only going to get better in time.
I paired it with roast chicken for dinner with some buttery Armenian Pilaf. It was heavenly. The contrast of spicy jalapeños against buttery rice and greased up chicken is a match made in heaven. It’s all about the contrast. 😋
