Hi all,

 

The Japanese make salted pickles, 'umeboshi', out of a unripe Prunus mume, a Prunus armeniaca relative.  It's generally eaten for breakfast or lunch as an appetite stimulant in very small quantities.  You might want to Google umeboshi for recipes--it might lead you to a variety of different recipes for green "appies".

Yes you can make pickles out of unripe apricots.  My wife does it and has made some in this season too.

 

If you were in India, we could have offered you.

I wonder if you could make Indian/Pakistani pickles (chutney) out of them?  A bitter taste there wouldn’t necessarily be undesirable.

Do you like northern Indian food?

If your tastes run to more conventional fare, why not try a test batch of jam?
