Gifting Homemade Pickled Vegetables

Finding the perfect gift around the holidays can be tough, which is why I love making something homemade - it's always thoughtful and appreciated. A couple of years back I made infused alcohols that were a hit, and this year I wanted to try my hand at pickling. I used a carrot fennel seed, spicy radish, and tomatillo dill pickling recipe to delicious results: the final product is tangy, spicy and would go well with my favorite sandwich. The best part is the vegetables get better with age, and cracking into them a couple weeks into the new year is a present unto itself.
