Fermented pickles taste delicious on sandwiches, in potato salad, and they are great to eat on their own. I recently found the best-fermented pickle video recipe tutorial by Food Wishes, on YouTube, and I couldn’t wait to try it. Chef John of Food Wishes is so charming and describe this simple recipe in the most charming way. I had been looking to really understand what lacto-ferment really was and learn exactly how to do it at home. Fermented vegetables are so good for your digestion because they are full of good bacteria flora, and that is something I really need.
Ingredients For Fermented Dill Pickles:
Ingredients For The Pickles:
- 2 pounds of Kirby cucumbers (washed thoroughly)
- A handful of fresh dillweed (flowering is the most flavorful, but any dillweed can work, use dill seed if you can’t find dillweed)
Ingredients For The Brine:
- 8 cups of cold freshwater (filtered)
- 8 tablespoons of Kosher salt
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 2 teaspoons of whole coriander seed
- 2 teaspoons of black peppercorns
- 3 or 4 bay leaves
- 4 whole cloves
Directions:
This best-fermented pickle video recipe tutorial by Food Wishes, on YouTube, is so easy and delicious. You begin by putting your pickles and dill into a large jar or clay pot. Then, you will make your brine in a pot on the stove.
Then, set a ramekin or small plate on top of your pickles to make sure there is no air inside your jar.
These pickles turn out so well, I love them.
