Hey /ck/ i'm looking for a pickle recipe but not just any pickle recipe. My great grandmother used to make pickles with just salt, now I never had them but my grandfather and his brothers used to eat them all the time and loved them. Nobody ever wrote down the recipe and all I know is she used about a gallon and a half or 2 gallon container for like a dozen pickles then threw in "a handfull" of salt and put a cheesecloth over the top and waited 2 or 3 weeks then scooped all the salt off the top and thats all I know, I don't know if she waited longer or what, I also dont really know anything about making pickles in general. I'd like to be able to make them for grandfather and his brothers again because they always talk about them
As in just salt water? Put them in a jar of brine and spicy peppers senpai, tastes great.

Yeah just salt water. Spicy peppers sounds really good I might make them for myself, but the method im looking for was just salt water.

just google salt pickle recipes, there's tons of results to choose from, but the basic salt pickle is just half vinegar, half saltwater, add whatever you're pickling and then heat to seal the mason jars
Just put the pre-pickles in a mason jar with two handfuls of salt and leave for a period of time.
