I have a theory that the summer, more than any other season, brings out the homesteader in many of us. There's this primal tug to gather up all the summer fruits and vegetables and put them "up" for winter. Personally, I've made canned cherries, plum jam and peach butter so far this year, and I'm hoping to make some blackberry jam as well before the season is out. I've also got a bag of kirbies in the fridge right now that are waiting to become a batch of pickles. I was planning on stirring up an asian-inspired brine, but having seen these rosemary garlic spears that Kelly made, I'm now thinking that I should follow her lead and go with those flavors. I'm certain that no matter what I do, they're sure to be delicious.
Thanks Kelly, for adding your pic to the Slashfood pool.
