I have told you before that my family LOVES pickles. And really, that is an understatement. So, when I came across this recipe one day, I knew I had to try it. For those of you who are not huge pickle lovers, you might want to put aside your distaste, because the pickles in this recipe give the soup a nice tart flavour. This is a simple soup, which has become one of the most requested in our house.
Serves 8 to 10
You know that summer is in full swing when our market is over-flowing with sweet and juicy Ontario peaches! Warners Orchard based in Beemsville, Ontario lovingly grows and cares for their peaches so that they can bring that quintessential taste of summer to the Aberfoyle Farmers Market.
My husband loves pickles. And by love, I mean he eats them on everything, he eats them with everything, he craves them nightly, he can’t get enough. But in saying that, he is also really picky about his pickles (say that 10 times fast!). They need to have garlic, and most of all they need to be crunchy.
