Pepinos Escabeches Almost Ready To Start !

DavidE - 6-26-2013 at 12:06 PM

Thought an update will be in order. Just put in an order for raw sea salt. Should be here mañana but I'm going to start the process using regular (ugh) table salt. Getting smaller pepinos (cucumbers) has proven to be difficult. So the promise of whole dills has gone out the window. Sorry 'bout that!

Butter pickles, stackers, and relish on........the.........way after the pickle spears appear.

I am amazed to see picking sized cucs in the Ley markets over here almost all the time.

GRAPE LEAVES! Anyone ever see grapevines in this part of the peninsula (like Vizcaino)?

Aren't you close enough to G Negro to walk over
to the Salt Works and get a few shovels full?

Sadly, walking* is not an option for me. And cataracts pretty much wipe out any chance of long distance spotting.

*Better to hobble than be confined to a wheelchair, though :)

Muñeca who works at the Almacen Leyes de Reforma is one who has beautiful grape vines in her yard.
