Though Thanksgiving isn't here quite yet, I'm fairly certain that you're all tired of cranberries (and if you're anything like me, you've also hit your pumpkin saturation point). And I understand (truly, I do) that the last thing you need to see is one more cranberry recipe. Yet, I couldn't resist sharing this one. Because pickled cranberries are something special. They take the natural sweet-tart nature of this little red berry and amplify it.

One item I'm always happy to see come fall is the new daikon radish. Fresh and tender, the farmers' market variety is a world away from the beat-up version I can get all year long at my local Asian market. Crunchy, bright and just slightly sharp, daikon makes an amazingly tasty pickle.

When you think of a good pickle, eggplant is not one of the vegetables that immediately springs to mind. In fact, if the hierarchy of pickles, eggplant hovers on the list somewhere after kohlrabi and just before kale. But this pickle is zippy and bright with a tender texture, without any signs of mushiness.

Use pickled garlic in salad dressings or as part of a pickle plate. They're particularly good when drizzled with a bit of fruity oil. During dinner prep, I'll often coarsely chop the pickled cloves and add them to sautéed vegetables, as they add both flavor and add an acidic punch to the finished dish. When the jar is all gone, I save the leftover brine and use in homemade bean purees or quickly dressed bowls of salad greens.

These hot peppers are incredibly versatile. The brine is unseasoned so they work just as well on sandwiches as they do chopped and stirred into homemade salsa. The other nice thing about this recipe is that it comes together in about half-hour.

Before you reach your pumpkin saturation point, you must prevail and make these pumpkin pickles. As is the case with so many of the recipes featured in the <a href="http://www.seriouseats.com/in_a_pickle/?ref=ind">In a Pickle</a> column, you are not going to find these on most grocery store shelves. They are sweet, squashy, dense and tangy. If you are someone who likes a good pumpkin curry, these are most definitely up your alley.

Beets haters are one thing but some people object to beets strictly because they make a mess in the kitchen. And it's true, red beets do bleed all over the place when peeled and sliced. But when you opt for golden beets, you get all the sweet, earthy flavor of beets but without the risk of staining your countertops and cutting boards.

Most people think that radishes are a spring vegetable. And it's true, they are one of the first fresh things when the weather is beginning to warm. However, smart farmers and home gardeners know that with the right varieties, they can have a second season in the fall.

Tiny Seckel pears are wonderful pickled and are delicious additions to salads, cheeseboards or served with any roast meat that needs a little zing. They make great gifts, so start stocking up now for an easy December holiday season.

Summer squash actually make wonderfully crisp and flavorful pickles that go really well on sandwiches or chopped and added to salads (julienned strips of these pickles are awfully good alongside autumnal dishes of roasted sausage and potato). You'll quickly find that a single jar is never enough.
