It's a salt, and legal, but SODIUM chloride is common table

salt.

Isn't sodium chloride common table salt?

Hi, I am new but just have to chime in about pickles. They are kind of my thing

apparently...hubby loves them. You can buy...but they are soooo cheap and easy

to make. They are probably the easiest thing other than beets to pickle.

It is basically the cukes, salt, whey (from your yogurt or can buy non dairy),

garlic, and herbs.

Really so easy and ready in just a couple of days. I have a couple of jars on

my counter now waiting for me to put the lids on. I line up a few jars of

different veggies and pour in the liquid all at once.

It is nowhere near as much work as kraut. No mushing or anything. The taste is

to die for too! No heat, and they are extremely probiotic.

They take less time to make than the trip to the store If you are

interested, just drop me a line.

Good Pickles
