Shopping list

“What I'm missing” leaves off staples you almost certainly have — salt, pepper, oil, water — and anything already in your pantry.

Nutrition · per serving

1 spear or about 5 rounds (info is approximate—I don't know how much of the salt/sugar actually permeates the pickles but this accounts for their full amounts) per serving
