  • These are truly the best fermented dill pickles! Using the old fashioned method of a salt pickles recipe, there is no vinegar added. With this lacto-fermented pickles recipe you will get the perfect pickle that is not only delicious, full of probiotics, but crunchy too! This video will show you how to ferment pickles in a jar plus how to ferment pickles in a crock. In addition, I include a FAQs section after the instructions that tells you how to know if your fermented pickles have gone bad, what to do if mold or kahm yeast form, and how to ferment pickles long term. Enjoy!
    =====================
    NOTE ON FERMENTATION FAIL:
    If your pickles fail to successfully ferment and you feel you did everything correctly, the culprit may be store bought cucumbers. Best to use cucumbers from a farmers market, garden or the like. I have even had 'organic' store bought cucumbers fail, not just commercial ones. Contrastly, I've had 100% success rate with garden and local farmer's market cukes. This is because store cucumbers, including organic, are power washed which washes away the needed beneficial bacteria that are required for fermentation.
    FERMENTATION WEIGHT NOTE: I no longer recommend using a rock as a fermenting weight since some rocks have a softer mineral content and/or have 'grit' that can dissolve in water.

    In Poland we also add horseradish or celery pieces, cherry or oak, horseradish,black currant leaves for more crispier cucumbers.Pouring hot water brine in to glass jars, can be kept for years without refrigerator( warm and cold brine also work ). Very important thing before starting ,hold cucumbers in ice cold water for hours for better crispness.

    I watched my Grandmother make pickles in the 60’s. She made them in large jars. She used wax paper and elastic bands to cover the top of the jars. She would put the dill, garlic and a bay leaf in the jars then add whole cucumbers and throw some salt in. Lastly she filled the jars with water them cover them with the wax paper and a elastic band. After a week she would put the lids over the wax paper and close. I didn’t remember if she boiled the water first. I do know the water was not hot. We ate the pickles all year even though she didn’t close the jars right away for long term storage as you recommended to do. She did store the finished pickle jars in a cool place. She also made barrels of sauerkraut with black whole pepper corns and caraway seeds. Absolutely delicious!! My grandmother was Ukrainian and your recipe is right on for the old fashioned pickles. These are the best kind of pickles especially for healthy eating. Thank you for sharing this perfect recipe.

      You can pickle anything - standard in Eastenr Europe were green tomatoes, gherkins (vinegar and fermented) , red flat peppers in vinegar, cauliflower, carrots, Small whole watermelons - basically any vegetable crop that would either ripen late or not at all or be the second crop of the summer therefore smaller (like the melons) and of course sauerkraut

    Very good tutorial! Pro tip: for great crunchiness keep cucumbers in fresh water for 4+ hours before pickling and you can boil brine after fermentation starts, put hot brine and a jars in and cover jars with tight airlock covers. This will make cucumbers crunchy and preserve them for 6+ months while do not stop fermentation process inside.

She also made a cherry liqueur in a huge bottle with thick glass by stuffing it to the top with cherries and then ramming in as much sugar as she could. If you ever got a cold, she'd give you a shot glass of that liqueur and wrap you up warm till you broke a sweat... I used to sneak some of it once in a while, and it tasted all the better for that.

      @CleanFoodLiving  Před rokem +4

      That is great! FYI on the kale (i will be making an updated video this summer)... store bought kale seems to give more trouble with successful fermentation... and the pre-washed bagged stuff will not ferment. This is due to the washing which removes the beneficial and needed bacteria for the ferment. Home grown or farmer market kale is the best choice. I don't mean to burst your bubble, I just wanted to forewarn you since I'd rather you experience success than fermenting failure and not knowing why. 😊

    A great video. What I use is a Korean ‚e-jen‘. You throw everything in, add the brine, and then press down with the sealing lid until the air is out, and then you plug the hole with the stopper. Works every time.

    Hi Adrienna, I want to tell you that I am new to your channel and after watching this video many times over, I’ve built up enough understanding and confidence to give this recipe a willingness to try… like you say in your videos. 😊
    Today I started my very first batch of fermented green beans and pickles.
    After reading some other comments, and while I had horseradish on hand, I added in a slice or two into each jar.
    I have a burping top and weight on my green beans and a napkin over my pickles. The jar I repurposed for the pickles, the mouth didn’t fit my weight, but I have everything so tight in there, nothing is floating.
    I hope everything works out as successfully as yours did and I’m glad I gave it a try!
    Thank you for these easy to follow, beginner recipes with detailed instructions. Your videos are edited very nicely. Keep up the great work!
    I will continue to share your page with others and be back for more fermenting videos and recipes to try!

    Another great video. I maker Fermented pickles pretty much the same. I still watched the whole video. So informative. I use 2% brine with no problems but I’ll try 4% just to see the difference. I also do the exact same ferment for green tomatoes (what doesn’t ripen on the vine before cold weather) 5-7 days on counter and long term in fridge until Christmas. I add carrots and onions and cauliflower. On the east coast we call Fermented cucumbers “ Half-Sours” the good delis make their own. Please keep the videos coming they are so good and motivating. Almost time for Beet Kvass!

      ​@@ciknovi You make brine by adding a certain amount of salt to water and mixing it until it completely dissolves. Heating the water definitely helps. The amount of salt to use, which varies depending on your amount of water, is mentioned in the video and linked in the description.

    This seems similar to what my Grandpa would do to make pickles. He was 1st American born generation German and lived through the depression so what he did was from his upbringing and out of necessity. I have looked for years to find something similar because I was apparently not forward thinking enough to learn it from him I have done without all these years. He also made fermented sauerkraut and loads of other things. His pickles had a strong bite almost a burn to them. Especially the pickled green tomatoes. As a kid I would reach for one of his pickles or a fresh tomato that he had grown for a snack instead of cookies. Unless it was Christmas season and Grandma had pfeffernusse cookies. Anyway I think I will try it.

    We have done pickles for over 30 years-
    First we only use 'well water' for the minerals-
    Also, the cukes have been picked within 24 hours-
    We soak the cukes in cold water so they are clean-
    We make a solution of coarse Kosher salt and the well water totally dissolved-
    We use quart sized canning jars with new lids -
    The lids are put in boiling water for a good seal -
    We pack ready made pickling spice, dill, garlic cloves, and a couple chili peppers and the cukes -
    Fill the jars with the salt water solution leaving 1/4" to top -
    Place a hot lid and screw on ring tight-
    Next day give ring an extra tight tug -
    Allow 2 weeks in cool area and then refrigerate -
    Allow 6 weeks to fully fermentation -
    If a lid should develop a pop or crease the seal is compromised and immediately refrigerate-
    We've been told by professionals that what we. are producing is a form of botulism - but in over 30 years, we haven't lost anyone!

    @ronsandahl274 Před rokem +3

    Great video! One note: if you are fermenting various items it is best to keep them away from each other while fermenting to prevent them from picking up each others flavors. This is also why you should keep these as far as possible from food waste or trash areas in the kitchen while fermenting. For people who have absolutely no other option available than chlorinated water (a/k/a tap water) if you pour the water into a container and leave it lightly covered with a cloth for 24 hour most of the chlorine will evaporate. This won't remove the fluoride, which is also a problem for ferments, but it will do if you have no other options.

    Hello everyone. Her's another recipe. Mustard seed instead of coriander. At least one horseradish the size of an average carrot per jar of equal size. Leaves and thin branches from a sour cherry tree. 5 leaves per jar. Two clean pieces of branches about the thickness of a pencil and long as the diameter of the jar wedge in a X shape just under the neck of the jar to keep the cucumbers down. ps. in my country after the cucumbers change color (two days or so) all the liquid is removed and boiled for ten minutes. The hot liquid is then added a little bit at first to the glass jar to avoid cracking. A lid is screw on the jar and the cucumbers can be kept in the pantry for up to a year.
