These gals know their pickles!
From growing the cukes though the packing process -- brine, garlic and jalpeno (hubby Rob said he's a pickle packer) -- Becky and daughter Aandrea have been at it with yummy success for the better part of a decade.
I met up with the Laluke Team at Otten Bros. fall benefit and sale last weekend. Tasted some of Becky's harvest from last year. Bought an $8.00 jar of the jalapeno pickles, and, following Laluke advice, tucked my purchase into the fridge where it has to sit for six months from date of "put up" until the ex-cukes are are at their tender, tasty, garlicky, peppery and pickley best!
As a bonus: met Becky's mom-in-law, Ginny, at the Laluke truck/stand. She's a hoot -- and you can see where much of the family energy, sense of humor, and gregarious grace comes from.
