What is your favourite pickle?
-
Straight-up pickled cucumbers, but specifically my partner’s late grandfather’s recipe. I don’t know what all goes in them or the ratios, but they’re the perfect amount of dill and spice and I think grape leaves? They’re perfect and oh-so-spicy.
the grape leaves supposedly help keep them crunchy. bay leaves can do the same thing.
they sell pickle crisp as an additive as well.

Mine is pickled beets, no dill (sorry beans, you're second). Nothing against dill, I love it in most pickles but prefer my beets unadulterated.

I had hoped to pickle beets this year....fuckin ants and rabbits man.
I feel you, I dumped a bunch of azomite in my garden a few years ago, all of my beets were softball size or larger with massive chunks eaten out haha

I smash the whole cloves a bit so the flavor comes through a bit more, though I suppose you could cut them up too! The bonus is you can pull the cloves out and use them in whatever you'd like, and they're much more pungent

Dill or sour for cucumbers, and anything not sweet for whatever else (eggplant, radish, plum, etc)

You can pickle watermelon... rind? It becomes edible?
Absolutely. Tends to be a southern United States thing. Pickled Watermelon

I've tried the grape leaves and didn't notice a huge difference. I do the low temp pasteurization and they stay pretty crisp. The most crispy are the lacto-fermented though.

Bubbie's pickles. I like the garlic-y taste much more than any other brand.

I'm a sucker for 'sweet mixed pickles', especially the cauliflower for its unique crunch.

Horseradish bread& butter chips are awesome! But I fell in love with a mango habanero guy from Walmart that was actually kinda spicy despite it being corpo slop attempting to seem trendy, and of course they discontinue it a few weeks after I discover it!

Pickled okra is definitely my favorite so far. Haven't tried those eggs at the gas station checkout yet....
Especially with heat! My mother would buy those often, and I'd devour them with little remorse. She got mad, instead of appreciating that her kid enjoyed eating okra. We don't talk anymore.
