* Universal cucumbers.
All cucumbers (long and gherkins) can be universal in purpose, you just need to choose the right method of preservation or pickling. It is believed that the presence of tubercles on the fruits contributes to the penetration of brine into the fruits, however, the thin skin of smooth-fruited cucumbers also passes the brine well. The main thing is that the fruits should have a small seed chamber and dense pulp, then with simple salting, you will get a crispy fruit.
An excellent way to pickle and preserve cucumbers: pickle cucumbers with spices in any dish for 4-5 days (1 tablespoon of salt per 1 litre of water).
Then decompose into sterilized jars and pour salted boiling water (1 tablespoon of salt per 2 litres of boiling water). Roll up lids.
In this case, it turns out that already salted cucumbers are preserved, and they are stored in this state already without preservatives.
