Leigh's pickles





Pickled Cucumbers,not my kind of pickle personally but Leigh loves these.Really easy and cheap to do, he used an empty Lidl Gherkin jar which are pretty big and used the leftover pickle juice from the Gherkins and topped up with extra white vinegar.He sliced chilli peppers and a few sprigs of dill along with his thick slices of cucumbers. These about a couple of months old now and he says they are tremendous!

I'm a fussy sod and only like sweet sliver skin pickled onions or beetroot.

He does a similar thing with picked eggs, saves the jars and the reuses the leftover vinegar. I've never actually tried a pickled egg but I may do one day.

Slurping the pickle juice is a great cure for heartburn/indigestion and good for replacing electrolytes when you're feeling a little run down.
