marinated vegetables
Soaked garden fare
Marinated vegetables are vegetables that have been soaked in a seasoned liquid—typically oil, vinegar, and herbs—to absorb flavor and soften slightly.
They appear on antipasto platters, in salads, and as side dishes: a jar of marinated artichoke hearts, marinated vegetables from the deli counter.
The process preserves vegetables while adding tang and complexity.
