How do you make a pickle?

Question

Summer O. · Answer

I have used some good quick pickle recipes here http://www.food52.com/recipes... and in the Momofuku cookbook.  As for canning I recommend 'Canning for New Generation' by Lianna Krissoff, very easy introduction to canning.  She pickles almost everything but there are about 5 recipes for cucumber pickles.

Depending on the size of whatever you are pickling (cucumbers to make traditional pickles), the time in a pickling solution will differ. The solution is generally made up of vinegar, salt, sugar, and whatever flavorings you want.
