18 Reasons: Sour, Sweet, and Slow: Southern Pickling Meal

Sour, Sweet, and Slow is an autumnal Southern Supper which blends the richness of southern comfort with the sharp tanginess of traditional pickling techniques. You’ll simmer pears in a warm spiced syrup, pack a jar of crunchy fermented dill pickles to take home, and blend and bottle a hot sauce from chiles that have been fermenting for weeks — all alongside slow-roasted pork, glazed roasted root vegetables, and toasted sourdough, eaten family-style. You’ll leave with two jars of your own, a good meal in your stomach, and a real feel for how pickling fits naturally into everyday Southern cooking.
