3 things you can add to your pickles!

Peppercorn

Peppercorn gives your pickles that spicy taste. If you want your pickles to be hot then add peppercorn while fermenting.

You can add the peppercorn balls without grinding them into your pickle jar while it's fermenting and your pickles will soak up the spicy flavor.

 Pickling Salt

A little salt enhances the pickle flavor, a lot of salt will make your pickle taste like a sea cucumber, too much salt and your cucumbers tastes like you are eating salt straight from the spoon.

Make sure to use pickling salt or sea salt because it doesn't contain iodine. Iodine will make the water cloudy and will settle down at the bottom.

Minced Garlic

If you want your pickles to have extra garlic flavor

Garlic is actually quite healthy, containing vitamin b6 and vitamin c. Plus garlic helps with your cholesterol levels.
