Ай бұрын

I want all of the stuff to be totally submerged under the liquid. I don’t want to buy actual weights and an onion has layers so you can use a cross section to accurately fit the diameter of the jar and hold everything without spending money! And since they aren’t going on the shelf, I don’t mind an organic weight because (in my experience) it doesn’t rot

I don't have the growing carrots but my purple asparagus are just doing so great and purple onions are extremely over doing it I never just done onions I always put them in with pickles and red hot peppers .

@TheAlrightChef

4 ай бұрын

@@peaceONearth365 totally get that!!! So fermenting would be different. Fermenting is letting things sit out and allowing natural yeasts that exist on the vegetables skin to create its own natural vinegars. This is just regular pickling where you are using your own vinegar to create a brine to preserve the veggies and give them flavor. They last a really, really long time in the fridge but I like to say consume within a month or two for best flavor. Without getting to much into it, shelf stable pickling requires a higher concentration of vinegar acidity (5%) and you have to seal the jars using a boiling water bath or pressure cooker to kill bacteria/seal the jar.
