Brine or vinegar? Are all pickles made from cucumbers? Were pickles the secret to Cleopatra’s beauty? On this episode of Time For Lunch Hannah and Harry are having a briny time learning about some of our favorite tasty and good-for-you snacks around: pickles! Pickle expert Bob McClure, cofounder of McClure’s Pickles, teaches us about making crunchy brined cucumbers and fellow podcaster Richard Parks (Richard’s Famous Food Podcast) brings us a wacky and wonderful lesson in acceptance and diversity in the world of talking pickles. You don’t want to miss this episode, so pop open a jar of your favorite kosher dills or kimchi and give us a listen!
