Title: Sweet & Sour Pickled Courgette Recipe Anyone?
Post by: littlevegpatch on July 21, 2009, 18:14:47
Hia, I was googling pickled courgette recipes trying to make a gherkin style pickle (to deal with a glut of marrows both neighbours have given us from their allotments) and came across mention of one on this site several years ago.

Can anyone help me with this?  Thanks
