*can substitute zucchini

My thoughts:

The other twenty-four 60 minutes menses I was picking upward my park groceries inwards add-on to came across a large bin of calabacita, or Mexican squash. They await a lot like zucchini but instead of black green, it is variegated grey-green inwards add-on to white (it looks a combat darker inward the flick than inward existent life) inwards add-on to a combat stubbier. They feel of taste a lot like zucchini too, except mayhap slightly sweeter.

In my excitement, I bought a bunch not thinking I wouldn't bring 4th dimension to learn to it before leaving on my trip. So I decided to plow it into a quick pickle that I could taste a combat straightaway off inwards add-on to fully when I learn back. Like my zucchini pickles inwards add-on to crookneck squeeze pickles from a province back, this pickle stays existent crisp inwards add-on to solely gets tastier the longer it stays inward the brine. I didn't both H2O bath canning mine because I merely made a small-scale batch inwards add-on to didn't bring time, but that's fine, these spicy pickles aren't going to final long anyway.
