Pickling Cucumbers

Description

Pickling cucumbers are a specific variety of cucumbers used primarily for making pickles. They are typically smaller, firmer, and have a bumpy skin compared to regular cucumbers. These cucumbers are preserved in a brine solution, which may include vinegar, salt, and various spices. The pickling process can involve fermentation, where beneficial bacteria break down sugars, creating a sour taste.
