can i use the same left over pickles water, to pickle some fresh cucumber?

Question

i am almost out of pickles, and i want to know if i can reuse the water [pickle juice] to pickle some fresh cucumber?

Answer 1

That pickle juice is GREAT if you want to pickle some carrot sticks in it, that's about all, though. It is too diluted to use for making pickles from scratch. To make your own pickles, you need to soak 2-3 inch cukes in salt water (brine solutions) for about 3 days, and THEN you drain all that and cook them with (fresh/dried) pickling spices, salt and sugar. The end result is the green tinged liquid you see in pickle jars. However, FRESH pickles (that you make yourself) are way greener (not yellow-green) than the store bought variety.

Answer 2

I believe that when cucumbers are pickled they're stored for some time in the juices, and if you've already opened the jar and had it in your fridge for some time it may spoil before the new cucumbers become pickles.

Answer 3

Pickled onions are very nicely-known right here. we've a type that are harvested whilst they're somewhat smaller than an oval golfing ball. they might desire to be peeled and brined in a single day. I do eggs additionally. in simple terms warmth the juice and pour over shelled eggs. See link decrease than for innovations and recipes..
