Lacto-fermented Pickles
This is my first jar of pickles for this year. Yea! I actually have cucumbers and dill ready in my garden at the same time. Lacto-fermenting is great for pickling just one jar at a time. When I heat canned pickles I had to wait until I have 3 lbs of cucumbers ready at the same time. Plus I have to set aside a large span of time for processing. And have all the other necessary ingredients ready, including jars and new lids.
With lacto-fermentation I am able to pick a few cucumbers, slice into a jar, add the other ingredients, and let sit on my counter for 2 days. The lids are not sealed.
These pickles are a healthy snack packed full of nutrients ready for the winter months.
