Reuse Old Pickle Jars for Even Tastier Homemade Pickles
It’s not that pickled cucumbers are expensive, but pickling your own foods is fun . It’s also pretty straightforward, especially if you have leftover pickled juice from an empty can on hand.
As Epicurious notes, the pickling brine is full of flavor and contains enough salt to pickle a whole new batch of fresh cucumbers. According to them, “every jar of pickles bought in the store is also a DIY pickle set.” After you’ve eaten all the pickles in the pickle jar, just hold the pickle and from there it’s an incredibly simple process.
Epicurious recommends starting with Kirby cucumbers, which are perfect for a can. You can put them whole or chopped in brine, then close the lid and refrigerate. Chopped or sliced pickles are ready in a few days, and whole pickles are ready in a week or two.
