Preparing to Pickle! (forum)

Linton starts with ...
Hello, I'm preparing to pickle some fruit from the snowdrop tree and would like to know a simple procedure for doing it because I've never pickled anything before. The fruits taste a bit like green beans if eaten raw but they are usually eaten pickled, so I expect they should become even more appealing if prepared that way.
Thanks for your suggestions.

I have never tried pickling, but I do ferment quite a few veggies. Why not try fermenting them? It's really easy and there are a lot of articles giving instructions online.

They would taste better than being pickled in vinegar, and contain healthy probiotics. Dill is often added to beans.

Wish we had an edit button! Good luck with your fermenting, and thank you for responding. I sometimes feel like giving up when answers are not thanked or responded to. When someone goes to the trouble to answer a question, it's good manners to reply.

Yes Julie the edit button has disappeared abd the Like an answer button links to somewhere else entirely - i used to like good questions or answers - its not user friendly anymore unfortunately. No wonder stalwarts have gone to FB.
