Yours-made, home-made PICKLES & pickled foods.
Share what you have eaten recently or made lately?
I'll go first.
I do love pickled foods of all sorts & besides, my FIL's pickles (cuks) are great as well as his pickled trout or fish he caught... not to mention chinese (pickled gluten, bamboo shoots, peanuts etc.), japanese (pickled eel / mackeral etc.) & korean looove pickled foods (like kimchee).
Today is my first try at "quick" pickled SG-style green chilies that only needs to be "overnight" & is great for many of my local foods (just got back from my homeland & is already home-sick).
Yah.... I also got about 5-lbs worth of fresh picked green chilies hand-picked myself for free from our relative's garden (pickling some & drying the rest).
I've been planning to try making some quick pickles, cucumbers soaked in vinegar, etc. But the recipes all call for some sugar. I'm wondering if that's necessary as I love really sour food.

I rarely use any surgar in my pickles, cause, like you, we really like the sour; If I do use it, I use about 1/2 of what the recipe calls for. Every year I make several jars of pickles as well as corn relish and pickled beets.
