Brine pickled vegetables and more – what is worth knowing about brine pickling?

Fermentation, defined by biologists as anaerobic production of energy from nutrients, has found extensive application in alcohol production, food preservation, and changing the organoleptic properties of products - their flavour, consistency, colour, or aroma. The history of using this process dates back to ancient times. At first, fermentation was only used for storing food and was carried out with deeper understanding of microbiological mechanisms. Next alcoholic fermentation, brine pickling is one of the most popular fermentation processes. In Poland, at first the only brine pickled vegetable was cabbage, which used to be eaten in quite large amounts, especially at the countryside an in poor household where getting through the winter depends on the quantity of crops and preparing them in such a way as to be able to take advantage of them for a long time.

Press – and hold it! What is worth remembering when preparing homemade preserves?

Making preserves is rooted in our history since the Middle Ages. A properly performed process of food preservation enables stopping the physiological, biochemical, and microbiological processes that take place in tissues. At home we usually use thermal methods, involving either high temperature (pasteurisation) or low temperature (cooling, freezing). We can also stop the development of unwanted microorganisms by limiting their access to water, e.g. by adding sugar or table salt, or by evaporating or drying a given product. A very healthy method is to use lactic fermentation, i.e. brine pickling, which is very popular in Poland. Another popular chemical method of food preservation at home is pickling, i.e. using an additive in the form of acetic acid.
