*can substitute zucchini

My thoughts:

They expect a lot similar zucchini but instead of night green, it is variegated grey-green in addition to white (it looks a chip darker inward the flick than inward existent life) in addition to a chip stubbier. They sense of savor a lot similar zucchini too, except possibly slightly sweeter.

In my excitement, I bought a bunch non thinking I wouldn't convey fourth dimension to teach to it earlier leaving on my trip. So I decided to plough it into a quick pickle that I could relish a chip straight off in addition to fully when I teach back. Like my zucchini pickles in addition to crookneck squeeze pickles from a land back, this pickle stays real crisp in addition to exclusively gets tastier the longer it stays inward the brine. I didn't both H2O bathroom canning mine because I only made a small-scale batch in addition to didn't convey time, but that's fine, these spicy pickles aren't going to concluding long anyway.
