Pickle Party

Our happy-go-lucky friend once invited us at his place to what he called pickle party. We all were intrigued and excited, for he mentioned the unique recipe, which would be delicious cheese sandwich, each one with filling of different types of pickle, such as dill, lime, gooseberry, brewed in vinegar, carrot, mango, and red chili, soaked in brine. He had carefully laid out the table for us with an array of six casseroles, each one containing similar looking sandwich of cheddar cheese with filling of specific pickle, indicated by its transparent bottle placed strategically in front of each casserole. After we took a few sips of chilled beer we were asked to taste the sandwich. We chose all the different types, except for the red chili one, for none of us wanted to blaze the tongue. As we took one bite we jumped up, for the red chili set our mouths on fire. We became the invited victim of the culinary prank of our friend who had fun seeing us in pickle at pickle party. ________________ August 19, 2022 Contest : It's A Pickle Party Sponsored by : Mystic Rose Rose
