If your man regularly prepares food for you that he either cannot or would not eat, you know he really loves you!
Case in point: In the fridge right now we have this...
Real-live home-made dill pickles! See the dill? See it? How cool is that?!
This windfall (for me--the MO wouldn't eat a pickle if you paid him) comes courtesy of a new cookbook, Charcuterie, which, while mainly focused on meat (and within that category, mainly The Pig), happens to include a section on pickling veggies. Complete with a recipe for pickling spices. And that is some good-smelling stuff, let me tell you.
He's also trying green beans, with a "natural pickle" instead of a dill. They're pretty too (and easier to photograph ;-)
Here's the book:
[Update: Well, okay, that may or may not be the book. If that is not the book, try this.]
