How to cook pickled cucumber caviar: a delicious spread for bread
Caviar can be made not only from zucchini, beets, mushrooms, or herring but also from pickled cucumbers. The biggest advantage is that this caviar can be eaten immediately after preparation and used as a spread on sandwiches. By the way, cucumber caviar can be eaten even during Lent.
Ukrainian chef Anatoliy (dobrovolskiy_hchef) shared an unusual recipe for pickled cucumber caviar on his Instagram page.
