Spicy Dill Pickled Vegetables
I love a good pickled vegetable - pretty much in any form! From cucumber to okra to radish to carrot. If there are pickled vegetables nearby, there's a good chance I'm eating them. This is the second time I have pickled vegetables myself using a recipe from this book. I usually eat them with a meat and cheese plate or on sandwiches, but they are delicious just on their own as well.
For choosing which vegetables to use, I typically scout the farmer's market in order to get an idea of what is in season. For the Spicy Dill recipe I'm using this time around, I selected purple carrots, radishes, and multi-colored french beans. I'll need to leave them in the fridge for at least a month before getting to enjoy, but in the meantime, they sure are pretty to look at!
