Questions & Answers

Is it true that these are the only spices required for dill pickles? Is it enough to add garlic to Kosher dill? I assumed the container would include a recipe?

Is it possible to cure ham and bacon with this?

It was simply used in the brine for my smoked ham, along with other ingredients.

Will this work for pickles made with bread and butter?

There's no reason why it shouldn't be possible. I haven't tried it yet with sweet pickles, but I intend to do so soon.

What are the specific usage instructions?

My husband uses it for smoking and brining meat, but the bottle doesn't come with any instructions.

Selected User Reviews For Gel Spice Bulk Authentic Pickling Spice 4 LB (64 Ounces) Kosher

My usual pickling spice has a higher ratio of mustard seeds to coriander, so it's not like this

4/5

There are no peppercorns in it at all. The coriander is the main ingredient. I think it's a good deal for what I got, but I'll add more mustard seed and peppercorns to round it out.

It was well worth the money, and the flavor was fantastic! It was exactly what I was looking for in a pickling spice! I'm not sure if it's because I used more salt in my recipe or if the spices just bring out the saltier flavor, but if you're using this pickling spice, I'd suggest using a little less salt in your recipe, but otherwise it's a great value for the money!

You'll enjoy it if you give it a try! I made some pickled eggs and dill pickles

5/5

It came out beautifully! This is going to last me a long time, thanks to the large jar! It was a lot bigger than it appeared in the picture on the internet.

If you're looking for a good deal, keep in mind that caveat empt Bay leaf, cinnamon, mostly dill, and mustard seed are among the higher-end flavorings that are missing

4/5

coriander is a herb that grows wild in the Mediterranean. I might be able to make my own. ought to have.

When I opened the container, the "safety seal" had been broken

3/5

I REMOVED THE TOP AND AS I WAS REMOVING THE SAFETY SEAL (ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CUT), I NOTICED THAT THE TOP OF THE PLASTIC CONTAINER HAD BEEN CUT ABOUT 1/3 AROUND THE CONTAINER UNDER THE SAFETY SEAL- THE CONTAINER HAS BEEN OPENED AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE USING THE PRODUCT, SO THE ITEM CAN NOT BE RETURNED.

It is a good deal

3/5

The Spices are of good quality and come at a reasonable price. The only criticism I have is that the blend does not appear to be similar to other pickling spices. There aren't enough mustard seeds or peppercorns in this recipe.

It's a fantastic product with a fantastic price tag

5/5

This is an excellent spice blend. I combine the vinegar and water with fresh dill and a few tablespoons of a dry pre-mixed picking spice, which contains all of the salt and allows for a more customized brine.

Pickling foods taste great with this flavor

5/5

I used only 2 teaspoons of this pickling spice per dozen eggs to pickle them. Pepper corn (freshly ground) was added. We had one each tonight in our salad because the flavor is good and mild. But I'll use more pickling spice next time, and I still think it's a good deal, even if we have to add extra spices to pickle other vegetables, meats, eggs, and so on.
