Homemade Dill Pickles (thelemmy.club)
submitted 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) by fujiwood@lemmy.world to c/cooking@lemmy.world

I made some dill pickles earlier today. Here they are before the water bath.

I usually make quick fridge pickles because I like their texture and mild pickle flavor. I decided to try normal canned pickles this time. Hopefully they stay crisp and mild.

have you done them this way before? are you sure you can succeed without using weights to maintain them under the liquid? that's how i always learned you succeed at lactofermentation, by ensuring it it stays anaerobic...

good luck!

I canned these to try it out. Since they have been heated in a water bath to boiling for over ten minutes, they shouldn't go bad.

Thanks!

Why water bath instead of ferment? Gonna get soggy.

[-] fujiwood@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

Mostly because I wanted to try it.

I'm almost positive that you're right since the color of the pickles changes a lot.

General rule of thumb:

If you like Claussens or Bubbies, you want to ferment.

If you like the super yellow jarred kind, boil and can with a TON of tannins to stop them going super soft.

Fermented pickles slap.
