Quick pickles – a staple of every good cook, quick pickles are a way to make a delicious condiment or a zesty ingredient for your everyday cooking. We will cover the basics of quick pickling as well as sampling multiple kinds of pickles while we practice the art of quick pickling. We will explore common and uncommon types of quick pickles, because there is not much you can’t make into a quick pickle. As well as covering the basics of quick pickles, we will go into pickling firmer veggies and even potatoes as well as eggs (which really ups your ramen game at home) and citrus (which can be a gateway to making Middle Eastern tagines). Preserved lemons should be in everyone’s pantry and they are very easy to make yourself.
