Nostalgic Pickled Cucumbers

I learned how to do this from an old family friend. She is an older sister to one of my best friends and has begun to slip away from us as she has dementia. I will always treasure this old recipe. Jane Crum is someone I admire.(August 17, 2019)

When I brought a bag of ten of these lightly pickled cucumbers to a barbecue they quickly disappeared.Add the ginger and sesame oil at least 10 minutes after you season the cucumber with salt to allow the cucumber flavour to shine through.When in a rush, you can use less salt than usual and add the sesame oil and ginger a bit earlier. Please adjust the pickling time according to the size of the cucumbers. For 1 bowl. Recipe by nabeko44kazu.

This is the way my mom cooks cucumbers and it's so delicious.

Everyone in my family loved this dish!Although using a plastic bag would pickle more evenly, I make and serve it in a Tupperware. The longer the pickling, the better the flavor.When pickling for a long time, it's good to add ichimi chili pepper powder before serving. Recipe by Team yokin

I grew my cucumbers at home and there even better!

Another way how to make cucumber become a nice dish#mycookbook

I had this as a side dish for a steak tartare and loved it. The cook told me the recipe and it is too simple to be true.Please note that the cucumber should pickled at least 4 hours.

I received some of this from a neighbor and was amazed - it was just like Kyuuri no Kyuuchan! I didn't know you could make it at home! So, I asked my neighbor for the recipe.These are rather assertively flavored. If they are too strong for you, increase the cucumbers or reduce the flavoring ingredients. Recipe by yamita

I tried making my usual morning pickled cucumbers by using shio-koji instead of my usual method.This recipe is so easy because all you have to do is mix and rub everything together.You can also add some turnips..The amount of salt content in shio-koji varies by brand, so adjust accordingly.

Armenian and persian cucumbers grow well here in our hot desert climate, and we pick them in June, when still small, before they produce a lot of seeds. Skin on, pickled fresh with a solution of boiled wine, vinegar, sugar, water and spices. They hold their delicious, crunchy, sweet-sour-spicy-fresh taste all year, fresh or sterilized.To maintain their tender taste, we do not add the pickling spices we normally use to pickle fully grown English and Californian cucumbers.If not eaten after a week in the fridge, we sterilize the leftover pickles in their mason jar in a waterbath, 15 minutes and keep them in the pantry.#GlobalApron

I adopted a recipe that I saw in a book about 10 years ago.※ If you can, use premade pickling spice to make authentic and spicy pickles. But if you cannot find it, use a mixture of 5 grains of black pepper corn, 1 red chili pepper, and 1 bay leaf.※ You can eat it on the first day, but it's best after 3 days. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
