Pickled Asparagus

It's that time of year for asparagus!  This is the first year we've been mostly on top of the every-other-day asparagus picking.  We've been eating asparagus fresh, sautéed, grilled and roasted.  Yum!

My new thing this year was to try pickling asparagus.  I used my favorite pickling recipe, and I've got my first batch done.  Of course we had to try it right away.  It was delicious!  Pickle-y, with a nice crunch and great asparagus flavor.  A great way to use up your extra fresh asparagus!  I'll be making several more batches this year to preserve for the winter.
