[In Progress]. A spicy pickled take.
Mix Ingredients
- Freshly seeded, stemmed and chopped peppers. 1 red bell, 1 green bell pepper and one anaheim chili.
- 1/4 cup or so chopped garlic
- 2 small tomatoes. Chopped into chunks
- 4 oz tomato paste
Mix Preparation
- Chop the peppers, tomato and garlic into small chunks. Place them in large Dutch oven.
- Puree the veggies.
- (Optional if you want a thinner consistency.) Strain into a bowl or jar through sieve, pressing with a rubber spatula; discard solids.
- Add everything else. Puree a bit more.
The Pickled Mary
- Edge a large glass with salt.
- Pour in a shot or two of vodka ( Ursula cucumber vodka is good). Strain if needed.
- Pour in the mix, fill about 2/3rds of the glass.
- Add ice. Be sure and leave some room in the glass.
Notes
- Cucumber juice can be hard to come by. Puree one or two large cucumbers with a bit of water and strain.
- If you don't strain the veggies it'll come out a bit thick. Almost smoothy like, but not chunky.
- If the mix is too thick, no worries, just add some water.
- You can play a bit of mix n' match with the peppers for variety.
Experimentation notes
- More pickle juice?
