And let me just tell you that half of it was gone before it was even done marinating. The garlic and dill flavors were just perfect. Absolutely outstanding. Will be a summer staple, I'm sure.

I love savory-sweet things involving meat and cheese, but I can't stand for my veggies to be tainted with sugar! Is it undetectable? ps- Dill seed is kind of expensive. If you grow your own dill, it will "go to seed", aka: grow big sunflower-esque seed branches at the end of it. You can cut these off, let them dry, and shake out the seeds. It's easy to grow, too, like parsley :) How might these be minus the sugar? I love savory-sweet things involving meat and cheese, but I can’t stand for my veggies to be tainted with sugar!

In this recipe, I added fresh dill at the end instead, because I couldn’t find the seed. If you are using dried, I’d add it sooner.

I do add a little plop of sour cream on top, though. My Hungarian husband insists! One of my favorite salads! I do add a little plop of sour cream on top, though. My Hungarian husband insists!

Have you tried making pickled seaweed salad as well? I'd be really curious to see that recipe. Great photos, as always!

Just add some crushed red pepper to taste to the vinegar mixture as you're heating it and thinly sliced onions of any variety (if you like onions- fine without them). Radishes are a lovely addition too. It keeps very well and I usually have a batch in the fridge all the time(especially in summer).

Baking powder with the cornstarch in it will keep for months in an airtight container--likely as long as the baking soda does. Buttermilk I wouldn't keep beyond the milk's expiration date. However, I've heard about people freezing unused buttermilk for later use but haven't tried it yet. Baking powder or buttermilk?
