My thoughts:
I had read well-nigh Mexican Sour Gherkins, too known as sandita, several times before precisely I could never laurels them. Then my friend Olga told me well-nigh her produce delivery boxes that she loved. She is based unopen DC as good as tweeted them how jealous I was that they didn't deliver to Baltimore. Well, they tweeted back as good as it turns out they do! I signed upwardly for a box as good as noticed that you lot lot could add together together items on to you lot lot delivery beyond what comes inwards the box. Imagine my delight when I constitute they had Mexican Gherkins! I, of course, ordered a pound. They expect similar piffling baby watermelons (mine were well-nigh 1/2-3/4 inch long) precisely sense of savour similarly a tart cucumber as good as convey a cucumber-like interior. They are a chip crunchy as good as thus I persuasion they'd concur upwardly perfect as bite-sized pickles. I made them into refrigerator pickles (although they are security to H2O bath can) to construct for certain they kept that crunch. They are perfect as it, on a salad as good as I'd bet as a cocktail (or mocktail!) garnish.Want to know to a greater extent than well-nigh this vegetable?
