Culinary Inspiration: How to Use Pickling Spice

Create a wide array of tangy treats:

Classic Pickles: The essential mix for dill pickles, gherkins, and pickled cucumbers.

Pickled Vegetables: Perfect for pickled onions, cauliflower, carrots, and beetroot.

Relishes & Chutneys: Add a tablespoon to tomato relish, piccalilli, or fruit chutneys for depth.

Pickled Eggs & Fish: A key seasoning for brines for pickled eggs and fish.

Brining Solutions: Use in brines for poultry or pork before cooking to add flavour and tenderness.

How to Use: Add 1-2 tablespoons of the blend directly to your vinegar-based brine. For a clearer brine and easier removal, you can tie the spices in a muslin cloth (cheesecloth) to create a sachet.

Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place to maintain the potency of the whole spices.
