Inspired by Sarımsaqla Göy Lobya (Azerbijani Green beans with Garlic)

This was another dish that was inspired by an Azerbijani recipe, Sarımsaqla Göy Lobya (Azerbijani Green beans with Garlic). I liked that the vegetable is cooked, then chilled with a vinegar-based marinade, that results in a sort of fresh pickle.

Blanch the veggie of your choice in salted water. Strain and set aside to cool. Whisk crushed garlic, vinegar, olive oil and sugar - though I skipped the sugar and used quince syrup instead - together in a bowl and pour over the veggies. Leave for the flavors to penetrate. Sprinkle with finely chopped dill to serve.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
