Might be a bit narrow, but if you wanted to make some pickle spears it should work.
I like to do a fridge pickle (always gets eaten within a few weeks, so spoilage isn’t a huge concern). Something like this pickled jalapeño recipe works with most veggies, and you can use some whole black peppercorn and mustard seeds (or a pickling spice mix) to give it that pickle flavor.
Oof. You’d think if they wanted to surprise people with twists and turns they’d just make a new game instead of altering the plot of a remake (unless I’m misunderstanding).
