It was originally reported that a Ukrainian grandma downed a Russian drone by throwing a jar of cucumber pickles. Subsequently it was revealed that it was, in fact, a jar of pickled tomatoes. Pickles are very Ukrainian and it seems a particularly good weapon with which to combat an invader. I've stuck to cucumbers as they are easier to find than green tomatoes. These are quickly made and a wonderfully tonic side dish for any meal or even in soup. I've also read that Ukrainians dip the cucumbers in honey and eat them like that!If you have access to oak leaves or blackcurrant leaves, add them as it will add crunchiness.
