I suppose it may be kindof weird, but I've got a little bit of a masochistic tendency when it comes to food pairings. But yea I did mean an actual pickle. I've been using this recipe for pickled peaches... it works well. I've also been adding a splash of Southern Comfort to the pickling solution. Of course, you could forgo the whole pickling process and do a fresh peach-southern comfort-peach habanero puree. I'd just cook the peaches first until soft to prevent discoloration. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/victorygarden/recipes/peaches.html Maybe with a little sugar or something the pickle it could work. And, again, worst-case scenario, you've got an awesome sauce for some pork chops (which is actually how we use the pickled peaches at work, minus the chiles) -Mike -- Teaching Assistant | "The solar garlic starts American Bounty, CIA | to rot." pink@gehennom.net |
