Best practices for Optimum Pickling Results
Follow these recommended guidelines for best pickling results.
Choose fresh vegetables.
Fresh, crunchy vegetables (cucumbers, cabbage, beans, carrots or peppers) will
improve the quality of your pickle. Do not use soft or crushed vegetables, as they
spoil quickly and will have a negative impact on preparation.
Clean all tools.
Clean and sanitize all tools before pickling, including pots, kitchen tools Universal
Jar and Pickling Cover to reduce any chance of contamination.
Wash and prep vegetables.
Thoroughly wash, peel (if necessary) and cut vegetables in uniform sizes for best
pickling results.
Use sea salt or kosher salt for their antibacterial properties.
Use salt that has zero to minimal processing. Salt that is naturally harvested is free
of additives and preservatives.
Use clean drinking water.
Use home drinking water or puried tap water while pickling. If using tap water, boil
it before using in pickling preparation.
Keep vinegar level at least 10-15% of the liquid for better results.
The higher the percentage of vinegar in your recipe, the lower the risk of bacterial
growth.
Keep vegetables submerged in liquid.
Make sure all ingredients are fully submerged for fresh, crunchy results.

Tightly close jar cover.
A tight cover prevents outside air from seeping inside, which could otherwise
cause pickling ingredients to spoil before they are done. The Universal Pickling Jar
is designed with a tight cover and valve, which is ideal for good results.
