Pickling salt

Pickling salt

Pickling Salt is a salt that is used mainly for canning and manufacturing pickles. It is made without iodine or any anti-caking products added. [ [http://www.foodsubs.com/Salt.html#pickling%20salt Cook's Thesaurus: Salt ] ] Pickles made with table salt will have dark and cloudy juice, due to the iodine in the salt, although the flavor should be about the same. It is very fine grained, to dissolve in brines [http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-pickling-salt.htm What is Pickling Salt? ] ] , so it is useful for any solution which needs salt.

Other Uses

Pickling salt can be used for things other than pickling. It can be used in place of table salt, although it can cake. A solution to this would be to add a few grains of rice to the salt, or to bake it (draws the moisture out), and then break it apart. It also sticks well to food, so it can be used in place of popcorn salt, which also has fine grains. [ [http://www.foodsubs.com/Salt.html Cook's Thesaurus: Salt ] ]
