i I BOOKING DOWN EAST I By REBA MITCHELL Summer time is the season for fresh vegetabies and fruits in abundance. Pickiing is one of the many methods of preserving fruits and vege tabies to be used iater. Pickiing is a process of preserving foods in salt brine (a solution of salt and water) or vinegar. Pickles and relishes have little food value, but they add interest and color to meals and stimulate the appetite with their crispness, tangy flavor, ad color. 'Both fruits and vegetables may be pickled whole, halved, quartered, or sliced. Cucum bers, tomatoes, onions, beets, red and green peppers, carrots, cauliflower, cabbage, peaches, pears, and crab apples are commonly used for pickles and relishes.. To make good pickles one must use the proper equipment the right ingredients and reliable recipes. Many people are venturing out to try different kinds and types of pickles. Last year I had a friend to give me a jar of summer squash pickle. They were delicious. I founds recipe for zucchini pickle slices so I Make Someone Happy Today! decided to substitute yellow summer squash this weekend. They turned out good.
