Summary of Pickled: Vegetables, Fruits, Roots, More--Preserving a World of Tastes and Traditions

The variety is astonishing--from simple to complex, some ready to eat within 24 hours and many that don't require canning. Not only bread-and-butter pickles, and traditional Mississippi chow-chow, but also Indian chutneys, and Asian pickles, from two great pickling cuisines. Other delectable recipes include French cornichons, Haitian pikliz, and Armenian preserved lemon. And for the truly adventurous, there's Japanese Dragon Cucumber, Full Moon Cabbage with Pomegranate Juice, Smashed Radish, and Good Mother's Salty Duck Egg. Sprinkled throughout with family and historical photos, there's a story behind every pickle.

What truly comes clear is that pickling is not a difficult technology. With Norris's help and guidance you can give yourself permission to invent your very own pickling tradition, then fill the shelves of your pantry with unimaginably delicious treats, little surprises to pull out and bring to the table. Pickled truly is all about preserving a world of tastes and traditions. --Schuyler Ingle
