Feast Your Eyes: Impromptu pickles

by Marisa McClellan, Posted Aug 6th 2008 @ 8:00AM

These waning days of summer bring out the country housewife in me (as much as is possible for an unmarried girl in Center City Philadelphia). I have a satisfyingly large stash of homemade jam tucked away under my dining room credenza and I've got three quarts of blueberries stashed away in the freezer. However, I've been looking at all the gorgeous Kirby and Gherkin cucumbers (as well as all the fantastic beets, carrots and string beans) at the farmers market and thinking idly about the possibility of turning them into pickles for munching into the fall and winter.

Kitt posted this picture, of her jar of refrigerator pickles that she threw together in order to use up some leftover dill. My pickle urges are getting stronger.

Thanks Kitt, for adding such a tempting pic to the pool!
