After I made the Easy Arugula Pesto, I went down to the garden to see if I needed to pick anything today.
The eggs went into pasta carbonara for dinner. The Pepperoncini’s wound up in a fermenting jar (are you even surprised?)The yellow squash went with the other two I have and will be made into something tomorrow, and the cucumber was too big for pickling, so it was used for my favourite (really… all time favourite) Cucumber Sour Cream Salad.
I have hundreds of pickling cucumbers just budding out. By next week I think I am going to be using every available crock and jar for pickles.
Because I can’t keep it to myself, here is my Cucumber Sour Cream Salad. I reduced it by a â…“ since I only had one cucumber.
