My thoughts:
I had read nigh Mexican Sour Gherkins, besides known equally sandita, several times earlier exactly I could never honour them. Then my friend Olga told me nigh her produce delivery boxes that she loved. She is based close DC as well as tweeted them how jealous I was that they didn't deliver to Baltimore. Well, they tweeted dorsum as well as it turns out they do! I signed upwardly for a box as well as noticed that you lot could add together items on to you lot delivery beyond what comes inwards the box. Imagine my please when I establish they had Mexican Gherkins! I, of course, ordered a pound. They await similar trivial babe watermelons (mine were nigh 1/2-3/4 inch long) exactly gustation similarly a tart cucumber as well as bring a cucumber-like interior. They are a chip crunchy as well as hence I idea they'd hold upwardly perfect equally bite-sized pickles. I made them into fridge pickles (although they are rubber to H2O bathroom can) to brand certain they kept that crunch. They are perfect equally it, on a salad as well as I'd bet equally a cocktail (or mocktail!) garnish.Want to know to a greater extent than nigh this vegetable?
