How to Tuesday: Quick Pickles

We had a wonderful Memorial Day BBQ this year, but right in the middle of the festivities I realized that we had run out of pickles! No time to go to the store, what do we do!? The answer was simple, into the kitchen I went to make some quick pickles out of red onions, cucumbers, and radishes. 

The trick to making successful quick pickles is how thinly you cut the veggies. I would strongly suggest a mandoline but please make sure to use the finger guard, nobody wants pieces of finger in their pickles. This recipe is for about 1 cup juicy, sweet and tangy pickles.
