Specific steps for pickling cucumbers

1. Wash the purchased cucumbers carefully with rice water, then rinse them with clean water and remove the moisture on the surface.

2. Put the washed cucumbers in a clean container without oil or water, add the prepared salt and stir with your hands, and marinate for 24 hours. When marinating, put heavy objects on the cucumbers to facilitate the drainage of water in the cucumbers.

3. Put water in the pot and bring it to a boil. Quickly put in the pickled cucumbers and blanch them for ten seconds. Then take them out and drain the water. Place them on a bamboo mat to dry for a day. It is best to let the green cucumbers turn white.

Then pour the prepared sauce in. Stir it evenly with chopsticks, and add a few garlic cloves for seasoning. Seal it for about three days and the cucumbers can be taken out and eaten. If you refrigerate it, it will not deteriorate all winter.
