Instructions

QUICK PICKLES

  1. Thinly slice carrots, cucumber and radish. Fill sterilized 1/2 pint mason jars with carrots, cucumbers and radish in individual jars. 
  2. Add fresh dill sprigs, 1/2 teaspoon of peppercorn and optional garlic or thinly sliced red cherry chile peppers to jars. 
  3. In a large liquid measuring cup, combine filtered water and distilled white vinegar together. Then,  pour mixture over top of each jar until all of the veggies are completely submerged.
  4. Screw on the mason jar lids and place the quick pickles in the fridge for at least a few hours, preferably overnight, before serving.

HERB SKYR

  1. Stir lemon zest, finely chopped herbs and salt and pepper into the skyr. Set aside.

TOASTY BREAD

  1. Slice the bread into 16 slabs, about 3/4" - 1" thick.
  2. Warm a grill pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and grill the bread slices until it toasts up and just starts to char on the edges. Set aside.
  3. Top the grilled bread slices with a thick slather (1-2 tablespoons) of herby skyr mixture.
  4. Top with an rainbow of quick pickled veggies, snippets of fresh herbs and a grind of salt and pepper. 

Notes

*These are quick and zippy pickles that stay crisp in the fridge, no heat and no fuss necessary. When sealed tight, they should last up to a week in the fridge.
