I am a strong believer in the quick pickle. A basic understanding of salt to sugar ratios can transform the humblest, or even the saddest vegetable clinging to life at the bottom of your crisper. Alternatively, using this technique can elevate beautiful perfect produce to something even folks who aren’t particularly enthusiastic about peak season cucumbers perk up after trying one.
I probably should not have the audacity to provide anyone who does not live in a nuclear fallout shelter a recipe for guacamole. I get that. So, please feel free to redirect yourself to another entry on this website and try to forget my terrible trespass.
I have a favorite Korean restaurant at home in Honolulu. I haven’t been back in way too long, but I have to believe they’re still slinging the very best kimchee pancakes and this mandatory side salad? Vegetable?
