#BallHomeCanningAmbassador #ad Pickle Pursuit Ep. #BallHomeCanningAmbassador #ad Pickle Pursuit Ep. 3 Bread and Butter Pickles with @ballcanning Let’s just say that I’ve fully entered my canning girl era. A perfect pool day or beach day sandwich requires a sweet pickle, and that’s where water bath canning pickles comes in! It’s just not possible to get a classic, sweet bread and butter pickle with fermentation. As a food microbiologist, I love the connection here. Canning pickles is all about stopping microbial growth, but when water bath canning pickles, we still rely on a vital fermented ingredient: vinegar. Even when we’re trying to keep microbes out, we still rely on them, just in a different way! 😍🥒 Grab your jars and try a recipe from the 38th Edition Ball® Blue Book Guide to Preserving or BallMasonJars.com to get started canning pickles this season! All Ball® home canning recipes are tested and approved for safety, and that’s why I love them. Ball® and Ball logotype TMs Ball Corporation, used under license.

I know some of you will ask if you can use fresh horseradish, and I honestly don’t know because I haven’t tested it. I love using the prepared horseradish though, and I’ve tested many recipes with the prepared kind, so I do recommend using that! I think this Summer Pickle Pursuit Series is going to be so much fun, and I can’t wait to share more and more pickle recipes with you guys! I’m even going to grow my own cucumbers to ferment for the first time ever because I have a garden now. Stay tuned for the next recipe very soon 😍🥒
