Fermented Pickle Disaster
I made a small batch of fermented pickles, pretty much like dozens of
others in the past but something went seriously wrong. I started it about two weeks ago and tasted one after a week and it was fine and about what I would expect after a week. Last night I cut one and it was just a hollow tube. What seeds and pulp left was just a thin layer on the inside of the shell. I check a few more and they were all the same and then noted that they were all floating. My process is the same as my sauer kraut recipe http://schmidling.com/kraut.htm in which I just substitute pickles for cabbage. I have never had anything but wonderful pickles doing this until now. Any ideas? js p.s. this is a test of my isp news server. I am also posting it from Google and would like to hear from anyone who only sees the google version. js -- PHOTO OF THE WEEK: http://schmidling.com/pow.htm Astronomy, Beer, Cheese, Fiber,Gems, Sausage,Silver http://schmidling.com |
