Watermelon and Fish Pickles

So we did our first post-pickling class pickling project using snap peas. I will check back in about 10 days to see how they go. In the meantime, here's a Philadelphia chef whose new join will feature Kool-Aid pickled watermelon and fish pickles.

Speaking of Pickles

My wife and I took a two-hour class in Phoenix last night on the fine art of pickling, something we've been messing with for a number of years but have failed to do correctly. In two hours, I quickly saw all the mistakes we had been making. Speaking of pickles, here's a niece piece from the New York Observer on a pickle startup in Brooklyn called Fresh Brine.

Fried Pickles

Since becoming an official/unofficial Texan two years ago, my wife and I have cultivated a love for fried pickles. Every time we go to one of the Alamo movie theaters, it's the first thing we order. I found a nice blog post about fried pickles. Enjoy.
