Welcome Lettie!

Love to hike? A handy app for finding hiking trails in our neck of the woods is AllTrails. Remember to take ample water and wear shoes with a bit of traction. Walk and hike with a buddy and let someone staying at home know where you are going.

Cabin Food
Refrigerated Pickles a la Provenché Family (Makes 1 quart)
- 2 medium carrots, peeled, cut into coins
- ¼ head cauliflower, cut into small florets
- ½ large red or white onion, thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeno, end trimmed, and seeds removed if very hot, sliced or ½ tsp tabasco sauce, optional
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed and sliced
- 2 teaspoons whole peppercorns, optional
- 2 teaspoons whole mustard seeds, optional
- 1-2 teaspoons total of fresh or dried herbs like dill, oregano, rosemary, and thyme
For the brine:
- 1 cup white distilled vinegar
- ¼ cup rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 1 ¼ cups water
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Instructions
- Use a quart glass jar (or two pints) with a lid. Make sure the jar is clean by pouring a small amount of white vinegar inside, screwing on the lid, and shaking for a few seconds. Let stand for about a minute, then rinse.
Fill the jar with the prepared vegetables and any flavorings you're using, such as peppercorns, garlic, mustard seeds, and fresh or dried herbs. Set it aside.
In a small saucepan combine the vinegars, water, salt, and sugar, and cook over medium-high heat until boiling. Stir to dissolve the sugar and salt. Pour the brine into the jar so that it covers the vegetables and almost reaches the top of the jar. Let it cool down for a few minutes, then screw on the lid. Once the jar has cooled to room temperature, transfer it to the refrigerator. These quick pickles can be eaten anytime but taste best after at least one day in the refrigerator.
Can be refrigerated 4 weeks in the fridge.
