Instructions

  1. Grind or Crush Larger Ingredients. If using cinnamon sticks or bay leaves, crush them up with a mortar and pestle into small pieces or use a spice grinder.
  2. Combine. Mix to combine your chosen ingredients in a small bowl. 
  3. Store in an Airtight Container. Store your pickling spice mix in a sealed, airtight container like a glass jar and keep in a cool, dark place. Use in any pickling recipe.

Notes

  • This is not an exhaustive list. Again, it depends on your own palate and preferred flavors. You'll get a stronger flavoring with a pickling spice combination, and of course vary up the ratios to your liking. There are also pre-packaged pickling spice mixes available in many grocery stores as well.
  • Makes about 1/2 cup.
  • Use 2 teaspoons of pickling spice for 1 quart of pickled peppers or vegetables, or more for more pronounced flavor development.
