Hmmm.

I think this will be the better result.

Understood and thank you! They would just have gone out with the compostables last week, and they are good today

lIRC, they weren’t quite firm on the stem end when I pickled them.

When you see someone clawing through the kirbys, sizing each one and squeezing them a little to check for firmness, come say hi.

Will do! As I mentioned above, I was surprised to find the Persian cukes, pre-chosen in a bag of four at the local Asian market, while the “pickling” cukes were left to be clawed through at the Mexican market!

I didn’t check our local “regular” nor “high end” markets yet, but I will!

Kirby on the left. Both good, Kirby perhaps a bit more crispy.

They were different, but not that different. Of course I can’t eat all these pickles in one go, so

Enough tomatoes are almost ripe;
