September 12: Pick Pickles for Snack a Pickle Day!

Here at Dishfolio we're of the opinion that anything that makes food last longer should be embraced - especially in an age when it's so important to make ingredients go further to save money and limit waste. For this reason, our bloggers wish to present you with online food recipes that center on the art of pickling.

Pickling has its roots in India, where over 4000 years ago cucumbers were pickled so that they could be enjoyed out of season. Nowadays, in the United States the term 'pickle' refers almost exclusively to pickled cucumbers, although the truth is that there are countless ingredients beyond this that are ripe for pickling.

You might be surprised to learn that, as well as being a cost-effective cooking method, pickling can encourage home cooks to be more adventurous. For instance, many food preservation recipes suggest that you add spices such as ginger and cinnamon to your pickling liquid for an extra kick.
