QUESTIONS ON PICKLING - TECHNIQUE AND CALCIUM CHLORIDE
This past year I have begun making pickles and preserving.
I recommend the following books:
"Mrs. Wages Home Canning Guide"
"Ball Blue Book-Guide to preserving"
"The Joy of Pickling"--my favorite
"Jean Anderson's Preserving Guide"
I have used pickling lime 3times--cukes-tomatoes must be rinsed 2-3 times
there r differences in taste with fermentation
i believe ball pickle crisp is same is pickling lime(slaked lime)
I think pickles come outbetter and last longer with waterbath method-
not very difficult-just takes time for water to boil-
exttra expense of jars.
Mrs.Wages has excellent supplies as well as Ball
