Ask a Question

I started eating pickled cucumbers ๐Ÿฅ’ and made some more and cut up some carrots ๐Ÿฅ• too

Does anyone else eat them, what foods do they go well with?

Leannexxx sliver skin? Whatโ€™s that?

I add malt vinegar as it says great for pickling and then add salt and pepper is all

I like all types of onion and will eat raw or cooked, they are meant to be good for your heart and pickles are very good for you if diabetic.

I also like pickled red cabbage

Leannexxx I just checked online at Tesco and Sainsbury. No luck so wondering if they have ceased trading or been taken over. It's very easy to make your own if you fancy it.

kitty88uk I hope you don't think I am being rude but when it says great for pickling it means you can use for making pickled onions not just pouring over them. Making pickled onions involves boiling, pickling spices, chillies, sugar, all sorts of things depending what recipe you use. Just Google 'recipes for pickled onions' and choose one to suit, and don't forget to sterilise the jars.

I love most pickles, but you cant beat a good really strong spicy picked onion. My Dad used to do his own with lots of chillis in the vinegar. amazing! Love a good jar of piccalilli too! Used to always be Haywards but there are some great smaller companies who do their own hotter versions.

I don't eat any of it myself. Gives me heartburn, too acidy, even though I like vinegar on chippy chips lol. My aunt, (who's now dead) went out on the booze on a Saturday. Every Sunday, she lay in bed, drinking lemon fanta. Jars of pickles, pickled red cabbage, pickled cauliflower etc. Lol.
