Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
This recipe is the bomb. It creates the most intoxicating and addictive fruit pickle I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Great on their own, with cheese, in a Manhattan, or with duck.
My tomatoes are peaking and there are still not enough to bother pressure canning. This marmalade is a nice combination of savory and sweet. Try in on hard cheese, like Spanish Manchego
This is a new relish recipe that gets me pretty excited. It can be used as a traditional relish, or mixed with yogurt to create a classic Indian raita.
This tomato basil jam is the best of both worlds--slightly sweet, a hint of savory, and ridiculously good with just about any kind of cheese. It makes the perfect appetizer or a great gourmet gift!
