Directions:
- In a mixing bowl, toss the cucumbers with salt to coat, then cover with ice cubes and refrigerate. After 1 to 2 hours, drain, rinse thoroughly, and strain to remove excess water. Set aside.
- In a saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus, carrots, peppers, onions, and garlic and saute for 3 minutes or until the vegetables are just beginning to soften. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the cucumbers, oregano, thyme, and peppercorns and gently toss to combine.
- Return the saute pan to medium heat, and add the vinegars, sugar, fennel seeds, and bay leaves. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Pour the syrup over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat. Cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate. These pickles are best a few days after they have been made, but can be eaten after chilling just a few hours.
- Aioli:
- 1 slice French bread
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cold water
- In a small bowl, soak the bread in the milk for 10 minutes. Squeeze the bread and break into small pieces.
- In another small bowl, beat together the yolks, salt, and garlic. Add the soaked bread and mix until incorporated.
- While beating the yolk mixture, slowly drizzle in the oil until a thick sauce is formed. Beat in the lemon juice and water. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Yield: about 1 1/2 cups
