New Pickle

Interesing seeds at Seed Savers, including Red Malabar spinach, fat Oxheart heirloom carrots, Amish Deer Tongue lettuce, and Sutton's Harbinger peas (won an Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society in 1901, apparently).



I am anxious to try pickling a batch of West Indian Gherkin cucumbers (above). I think they would be a nice addition to a bloody mary with some kind of hybrid wasabi/horseradish.
