{four for Friday} In a Pickle

This week I picked some things that remind me that cooking can be fun, healthy, and delicious. Make it an adventure, make you favorite dish, try pickling it's fun, really easy, go for it.

1. Cast iron skillet. Only one choice, Lodge. A necessity for Zuni chicken. Yum.

2. Canning and pickling is fun and delicious. Weck jars will make your pickles look amazing.

3. Foraging for food in your neighborhood is not just for drifters. Think clams, mussels, fish, fennel, nuts, berries, etc. all right under our noses. Langdon Cook inspires you to start looking, check the blog too.

4. The Norwalks gets amazing reviews, kinda pricey at $2495, but it eeks every bit of good stuff out of whatever your juicing. I am totally breaking out the juicer after reading this.
