Pickled Apples

(1/4) > >>

JoJoDapyro:
Last week I decided to pickle some apples. 2 cups vinegar, 1 cup brown sugar, a dozen or so whole cloves, and a tablespoon of cinnamon. 3 large Pink Lady apples, cored and sliced into rings. I am surprised at the outcome. They are great plain, and I bet they would be even better on some vanilla ice cream.

Pickled apples are good but pickled peaches are awesome.  We always used to pickle Indian peaches, these are cling peaches with a deep red flesh and fairly tart and sometimes a little astringent but boy do they make good pickled peaches.  These are usually available in late August and early September.  I don't think you will find any in the supermarkets, you will have to go to orchards and get lucky.

Grady, save the pits from the Indian peaches. They are not hybrid so you can plant the seed and they will grow into a tree that will produce Indian peaches.  ;)

paoliguy:
Have you ever tried ham baked with pickled peaches? It's so go it might be illegal! Bet the apples would be great to?

JW_Halverson:
Gonna run off a batch of those pickled apples soon!

I would kill for a couple of those Indian Peaches.  They sound really good.  I generally abhor fruit served with meat, never had it growing up and it just seems wrong.  HOWEVER, slice a peach in half, remove pit, dip the cut edge in taragon and sage infused olive oil and place cut side down over very hot coals until the flesh starts to carmelize.  Serve with grilled pork!  I am smoking some boston butts this weekend for Sunday nite gathering and I am going to serve up grilled peaches on the side.
