First Experiment
Notes
- Refrigerator pickles – quicker turn around in case it is a failure and less equipment needed
- Used regular cucumbers – thinking since they are not being heated they will not soften up too much to be appealing – this was verified by the results.
- Carrots and zuchini included in case a harder vegetable was required. They also turned out good. Carrots obviously not as good as they are very hard in comparison.
- Placed the flavoring ingredients in the jars first. Placed the vegetables in second. Brought the brine to a boil to sterilize. Poured slowly over vegetables to get some heating action but was very slow to avoid cracking the glass.
- Put rosemary instead of dill in one jar as a test
