I don’t know why, but I have been quite into pickling lately. I’ve never done any canning or significant pickling before, so I would like to get my feet wet before the summer is over! This pickled vegetable medley of carrot, cucumber, and daikon (Japanese radish) is inspired by the pickles I usually get inside Vietnamese spring rolls. Sweet and tangy, just the way I like it. Speaking of pickling, I’m still not a big fan of dill pickles. I’ll definitely eat homemade ones, but I won’t go out of my way to get one of those huge dill pickles that you find at county fairs. I attempted to recreate the famous noodle scene from Lady and the Tramp with this soba bowl, but it’s not that easy when you happen to be the only person around the house at dinner time. Lesson learned.
