Maintenance Of Pickle Containers
Dec 16, 2024| The maintenance of pickle containers mainly includes the following aspects:
Keep clean: The pickle container must be kept clean and free of oil stains. Clean thoroughly before and after each use to ensure that there is no residual oil stains and food residues. When cleaning, you can use an oil-free rag and running water to gently wipe it.
Sealing: The pickle container must have good sealing to prevent air from entering. You can seal a circle of plastic wrap around the mouth of the jar and then cover it with a lid to ensure the sealing effect.
In addition, you can add a circle of salt around the mouth of the jar to isolate the air and keep the environment inside the jar stable.
Regular cleaning and disinfection: It is very important to keep the pickle container clean for a long time and clean and disinfect it regularly. You can use high-proof liquor for disinfection. The specific method is to pour the liquor into the container, shake it gently, then pour it out, and then rinse it with clean water.
Avoid direct sunlight: The pickle container should be placed in a cool and dry place to avoid direct sunlight. High temperatures and direct sunlight promote bacterial growth and affect the quality of pickled vegetables.
Use special tools: When picking up pickled vegetables, special tools or disposable gloves should be used to prevent the oil on your hands from contaminating the pickled vegetables.
Dealing with the blooming phenomenon: If blooming (white blooming on the surface) occurs in the pickled vegetable container, you can add a little white wine and add fresh vegetables in time, and the white bloom will disappear on its own. If the situation is serious and the pickled vegetable water is stringy, it is recommended to pour it out and pickle it again.
