LA BUONA CUCINA AMERICANA - MADE IN AMERICA - PICKLES

It's Friday, so it's time for another American recipe, this time, Judy, aka Divina Cucina, over at OVER A TUSCAN STOVE. Clicking on the link will take you to Judy's recipe for bread and butter pickles. I like all kinds of pickles, but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be bread and butter pickles, cut thick and chunky, served crisp and cold.

For whatever reason, there aren't many pickles in Italy, and most of the ones I've found are rather sour and not to my liking. As for sweet pickles or bread and butter pickles, or even pickle relish, I've never seen them.

If you've been following along, you'll know that Judith over at THINK ON IT first came up with the idea of sharing some really good, really American recipes, mostly to show our Italian friends that we can do more than make delicious sweets...

Judith also has a LIST OF ALL THE RECIPES HERE, just in case you'd like to see if one of our favorites might become one of yours! La vera Cucina Americana!
