How to Make an Instant Pickle

On this video I show you a method to turn a cucumber into a pickle in just a few minutes. This process used an vacuum chamber to suck the air out of the cucumber and then when you let the air back in the vinegar and brine solution is pulled into the cucumber instantly pickling it!

My lacto pickles are still plenty crunchy. Throw some bayleaf in your jars when you ferment and it'll help keep it crisp. Haven't had a single mushy pickle, yet. And I pickle all sorts of foods.

For anyone allergic to cucumbers, you should realize that the process of boiling the cucumbers in a brine with high heat (such as when canning pickles) breaks down some compounds in the cucumbers. I know one person that is not allergic to a common brand Kosher dill pickle that use a heat process (possible also an anaerobic process) in pickling but is allergic to all so-called refrigerator pickles.

You can achieve the same affect without a vacuum chamber by putting pickle brine and cucumber pieces into a cream whipper (one of those canisters you put cream into and use a small N2O cylinder to pressurise it). It essentially uses pressure to force the pickling juice into the vegetable. Can be done n under 3 minutes. @The Action Lab, please give it a try.
