I really adore Sahadis in Brooklyn for spices. You can get basics there - yellow mustard, dill weed, red pepper flakes, peppercorns, a lot of great herbs and more middle eastern spices. The prices are very good ($3-6 for plastic containers that look to be at least one cup of the spice). You won't find schezuan peppercorns or anything too crazy and out there, but that's what Kalustyan's in Manhattan is for. Kalustyan's has every spice under the sun, but the prices are more of a gouge. It's worth it, for at least one trip. It's in Curry Hill and there are lots of great Indian stores in the neighborhood. (Similarly, Sahadi's is in Brooklyn Heights, and there's a whole stretch of great Arab stores and cafes nearby.) Jen! I really adore Sahadis in Brooklyn for spices.

The recipe I gave in the handout is exactly the recipe I used for the bread and butter pickles at class. They're SO good, right? I didn't have brown rice vinegar, cayenne or celery salt when I made them, so I left them out of the recipe for you ladies and gents. Let me know how they turn out and thanks again! Feel free to email or comment with any other questions. Debbie, thanks for coming out on Tuesday!

I'm gathering the ingredients to make the amazing Not-So-Sweet-Bread and Butter pickles that you had samples of, and I have a question. The recipe you handed out differs a bit from the Tart and Sweet recipe, and I'm wondering if that's how you made the ones you were sampling (for instance, you call for white vinegar instead of brown rice vinegar; your recipe omits the cayenne pepper and celery seed). I want mine to taste like yours, so please lemme know! Hey Emily,

After I walked home, I ended up making pasta with the baby tomatoes and some mozzarella and watching some soccer, and not pickling anything at all. BUT, I think I'm going to be quicky-pickling some of the cukes and zukes I have from like, 2-3 weeks of CSA built up. Great chat last night too. Homegirl, yes.
