Help with New Pickle recipe
« on: January 01, 2020, 05:33:23 PM »

Happy New Year all.  Not sure if this is appropriate for the site since it is technically not even going to be a cooking question, if not appropriate Bentley and Kristin feel free to delete the posting.

I have been getting New Pickles from our local Dutch Market for years.  These pickles are the kind not fermented and without using any vinegar.  Just a brine and spices, in the fridge for a few days.  I saw some great looking fresh cucumbers/pickles at the supermarket and picked them up to make new pickles.  I was reaching out to folks here to see if anyone has made them before and if anyone has a good process/recipe.  Otherwise I will look on line. 

Thanks much.

The post is fine, just sorry we are not able to help with the pickling.  All I have ever done is Giardiniera and simple red cabbage.

If you find something please post it. This would be fun to try, never heard of it before.

Never heard of those. I thought in order for it to be called a pickle, it needs some form of acid, either lactic from fermentation or acetic from vinegar. These are not sour at all?

Hi bregent.  That is the exact recipe I used to make the pickles.  Although I changed it up a bit after reading another recipe that mentioned not to use typical pickling seasonings for these types of pickles.  I substituted the pickling spices for just plain peppercorns, coriander seeds, and some dill.  I did make a big mistake however.  Instead of putting the pepper and coriander in whole, I course crushed them a bit. 
 I made the pickles on Weds and opened the jar last night to try them.  The pickles were still very crunchy and the brine made the pickles how I really like them, without the vinegar or fermentation.  Had a slight salty, garlicy, dilly flavor.  However, learned a big lesson.  If the recipe calls for whole peppercorns and coriander seeds.....go whole and do not crush them at all.  Resulted in a little heavier pepper flavor than it should have had.  But still very edible.  The recipes all say these should be eaten quickly since they are not fermented or in vinegar.  Will be making them again.

Here is a pic... pics of them in the jar did not come out well.
