Commercial fermented dill pickles using salt only and no
vinegar contain Sodium Benzoate and Calcium Chloride as preservatives and crispness retention . Why do homemade recipes never call for these. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

Why do homemade recipes never call for these. Because recipes formulated for home canners are worked to use ingredients *readily available* to average/typical the home canner. Most home preservers wouldn't know where to find those chemical compounds. I could tell you how I know this, but then I'd have to terminate you. -- -Barb, Mother Superior, HOSSSPoJ http://web.mac.com/barbschaller http://jamlady.eboard.com |

Why do homemade recipes never call for these. calcium chloride = Pickle Crisp T only much cheaper when written in lower case letters. buy it at a local homebrewing store. i have some on the shelf but have never used it, yet. joe petersburg, ak -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
