The dill on pickle juice?

[Gator]

I have a secret recipe which includes sweet pickle juice. I have been buying pickles, using the juice and tossing the little greenies in the trash.

In looking through the recipes - looks like I can omit a few ingredients like Pickle Crisp, since I only need the juice and what is Pickleing salt - is it different from regular salt?

Pickling salt is just salt with no additives in it. No iodine no anti-caking just pure salt. The additives will make pickles look nasty and the just don't look right either. We learned this the hard way.

Excellent news on the salt, I try to go all natural as often as possible.

Tami, If'n I tell the recipe, I would have to shoot ya! Just kidding. I have a double secret BBQ recipe I have been brewing for SuckleBusters thats why I am being evasive.

Still in the test kitchen. BBQ sauce. Old time recipe from East Texas.

Perryranch hit it about the salt, I even tried seasalt & Kosher salt and it doesn't come out quite right. As for the pickle crisp, I would try it both ways to see what you like. I do believe it causes some changes in the flavor, even though they say it shouldn't.

Pretty much so. Table salt has iodine in it. Cured ricketts in the US. Those other salts are natural salts. Canning/pickling salt is more course grain than table salt but much finer than Kosher or sea salt.
