Assorted Pickles (Muraturi Asortate)
I miss so much the assorted pickles my dad used to make back home that this year I have decided to try out his recipe. I know it’s a little late in the year but they should be ready in time for the Christmas feast
. I wish I had some green tomatoes (gogonele) to pickle as well but it’s kind of hard to find them in November
. I hope my assorted pickles turn out as good as my dad’s… I’ll let you know in a few weeks
