Pickles - Recipe Kickstarters
Peanut Butter-Pickle Crackers
It may seem like an odd pairing, but peanut butter and pickles is a
surprisingly good combo. The snap of a good garlic dill adds a savory
note to the creamy nut butter, while the sweetness of a bread and butter
pickle adds a nuance that jelly just can’t match.
1. SPREAD creamy or crunchy peanut butter over your
favorite crackers.
2. TOP with several slices of Kosher Dill Pickles (page 82) or
Bread & Butter Pickles (page 84). Serve as an appetizer or light lunch.
Three-Cheese Grilled Dill Sandwiches
Gourmet grilled cheese gets even better when pickles are added.
They cut the richness and add a tang.
1. GENEROUSLY BUTTER 4 slices of sourdough bread. Layer with
slices of sharp cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese and Provolone
cheese alternating with Dill Sandwich Slices (page 86).
2. COOK over medium heat until golden brown and cheese is
melted, turning occasionally.
