Jumbals are good to, for a cookie-type thing.
I make cold cucumber pickles by soaking them in white balsamic vinegar
or white wine vinegar or verjuice and sugar and saffron or fennel.
They're a good foil to meat pies or pasties.
(Aside: I live in New Zealand, land of enthusiastic meat pie
consumption, but I still think *one* item in pastry at lunchtime is
quite sufficient.)
