So, what's the verdict? Can I support my pickle addiction?
The answer: A resounding woot woot! (Literal translation: Heck yeah!)
If you remember, I did three treatments on the different jars of pickles.
#1. Traditional Dill: A touch sweet for my taste, but delicious nonetheless. There are certain folks out there in the crowd that have fed me (or tried to feed me, rather) countless sweet pickles on a certain cape cod beach. Needless to say I have never developed a taste for them. To you, it is your lucky day. Be looking for a hand delivery of jar #1 this week.
#2. Traditional Dill w/Red Pepper Flakes: Let's just say these aren't going anywhere. If you want a taste, you can come to my apartment and attempt to barter. 'Nuff said.
#3. Traditional Dill w/Franks Red Hot: This one gets the vote of a certain boy/roommate/guinea pig. The Franks is just vinegary enough to balance out the sweet to make these unbelievable. The over under on days this jar is around is currently at 2.2.
All in all a fantastic success. Looking forward to perfecting my brine. I have a feeling there will be LOTS of homemade pickles in this girl's future!
