Pickled Cucumber

This recipe is the result of many experiments with various pickling liquids.Small thin cucumbers that are about 100 g each are tastier than big fat ones with large seeds inside. Recipe by FarmersK

I made these with some leftover pickle brine I had. I had lots of motherwort herb from the garden and no dill, so I decided to make PMS pickles. Motherwort can help with pms, peri, postpartum, and other "ladies" issues, and can also ease anxiety in both women and men. No guarantees that these pickles will ease your ills, but they're tasty and comforting. The brine cuts the bitterness of the herb. Use just one leaf if you want less of the herb taste.

My brother-in-law, André, enjoys gardening and grows loads of beautiful jalapeños especially for me. I love them and use in a lot of my recipes. They're quick and easy to pickle for the fridge. I strongly recommend wearing latex gloves when handling the jalapeños. We had a couple of leftover mini bells sweet peppers from André's garden that I also used because I liked the red/green contrast. Then he brought in a mess of beautiful banana peppers, and I thought what the heck....in they went. They're delicious!

This cucumber salad with an Asian “zing” is great any time of year...even when it’s a chilly rainy day!

This is more or less a combination of both the Israeli style Salad and the Filipino Cucumber Salad, plus a little tweaking of my own for a bolder flavour.Israeli salad has tomatoes, avocado and herbs in lemon juice, salt and olive oil. The Filipino salad uses vinegar, chili, fish sauce or salt and sugar.Tweak to your liking! Add herbs, avocado, squeeze of lemon, cherry tomatoes etc. :)

So many of the recipes for pickled beets out there call for buckets of sugar and spices that are better suited for pies than for pickles in my humble opinion.This recipe goes the tart savory direction with them instead.Substitute dill seeds or even a sprig of fresh dill for the caraway for a tasty variation.#cookingwithyui

Stole this from the internet.

For a long time I thought radishes were boring and pointless. My partner, who is a chef, would order me food with "no radishes!" However, I discovered the art of pickling vegetables and this recipe turns a dull vegetable into something truly delicious.

I live in North Western Pa, by Amish country. After 5 days of brining, they turn a mild yellow color and have just the right amount of sweet and sour to them. The longer they brine, the better! Their my absolute favorite, and so easy to make!

I wanted to make pickles with homegrown radishes.Boil and disinfect the jar before use.Adjust the amount of sugar and vinegar as you like. For 10 to 12 pieces. Recipe by Chibisukesacchin

I was looking for something to go with a steak dish I was trying, called Japanese Steak Rice Bowl. (Japanese Style Steak Rice Bowl https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/4643016-japanese-style-steak-rice-bowl ) This Korean cucumber salad looked like it might fit the bill. It was perfect, really added a nice offset to the slightly sweet sauce on the steak. Now to be fair, I'm not a huge fan of cucumbers, it's a take or leave it kind of thing. But I tell you what, this thinly sliced English cucumber, in this light pickle was perfection. I used a medium hot red pepper powder, and it was not spicy. The flavors were fresh and just happen to be perfect with the steak. Without the lime juice, it had a very slight acidic taste, if you want it a tad more, use the lime/lemon juice also.

Today, I’m sharing a super refreshing and easy-to-make recipe for Asian-style cucumber salad. It’s crunchy, sweet, sour, and just the right amount of spicy—perfect for a quick snack or side dish. Best of all, it only takes about 10 minutes to whip up! I’m excited for you to try this simple yet delicious salad. Let’s get started and bring those flavors to life! Enjoy!
