This gets filed under the “little work for big return” recipes. A quick soak in a simple pickling solution gives regular carrots and cucumbers and extra flavor burst that is both salty and sweet with a hint of tart thanks to the rice vinegar. Want to add a little something special to sandwiches? Try these. This recipe is a key ingredient in our Seitan Bahn Mi sandwich (recipe coming soon). They also work great in sushi. This is also a great recipe for practicing your knife skills. You want the carrot and cucumber strips to be about 3 inches long. They can be longer and thicker, but then they will require a little more soaking time to allow the brine to work its magic. Prep Time: 5 minutes Marinading time: 30 minutes Ingredients: 1 cucumber 2 carrots 1 cup water 2 TBL white vinegar 2 TBL sugar 1 tsp salt Directions: 1. Peel
