Sweet and Spicy Refrigerator Pickles
Happy Friday lovelies! I don’t know about you, but I am so ready for a weekend full of fun and relaxation. It’s date night tonight and we plan on making dinner together at home before going out to see The Jungle Book. (Baloo is my favorite!) I hope it lives up to the fabulous reviews I’ve read.
Today’s recipe for sweet and spicy
refrigerator pickles is so simple to make. You heat the pickling liquid until the salt and sugar dissolves, pour it over beautiful thinly sliced veggies, bring to room temperature, and refrigerate. They only get better the longer they have to absorb the sweet, spicy, tangy pickling liquid. I love the balanced combination of radishes, onions, and jalapenos. Add them to tacos, sandwiches, salads, or snack on them right out of the jar. Make them once and they will soon become a staple in your fridge.

Garlic Herb Compound Butter
Compound butter is a great way to impart a ton of flavor into a dish. I don’t use much butter in my cooking, but when I do I prefer compound butter. 😉 This one is really more of a technique than a recipe. You can use any combination of herbs that you love or have on hand. I love the combination of thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic and lemon. It reminds me of Thanksgiving stuffing which is my favorite side dish anytime of year. Bread, butter, herbs, celery, and onions make me a very happy girl.
