DIY Pickling kit

Pickling at home can be so easy. Once you have all the materials, you will be able to enjoy pickles any time you want. This list consists of the basic materials that you need.

Materials Needed

1. Glass Jars with Lids

   • Glass jars, such as mason jars, are ideal for pickling. Ensure that they are clean and have tight fitting lids.

   • Size depends on how much you are pickling. I often use 8oz mason jars because I make small batches.

   • The glass jars can also be repurposed jars. For example, I use empty glass kimchi jars.

2. Vinegar

   • A variety of vinegars can be used for pickling. The most common are white vinegar and apple cider vinegar.

3. Salt

   • Any salt will do such as kosher salt or sea salt.

4. Sugar

   • White granulated sugar is most commonly used for pickling.

5. Spices and Herbs

   • The most commonly used spices and herbs are peppercorn, mustard seeds, dill, and garlic cloves.
