I recently canned some dill pickles, followed the recipe exactly. checking on the jars a day later and noticed some of the garlic has turned purple? Is this common and will the pickles be safe to eat. yes the jars sealed, and I used the exact process time required.I would hate to toss out after all that work
<the garlic in the recipe asked for slicing in half to put in ea jar but I took the 1/2s and diced them instead would this be cause from them turning? >
I'm glad I have found this site, itz been yrs since I canned and I have so many questions! I used to can with my mom when I was younger, but she has passed on and no one in my family can help me.
thanks in advance to anyone that can help...oh..bty...1 more question...
I noticed in some recipes it calls to soak your dills in ice water for 2-3 hrs is this necessary because I had done this as well.
just would like others input
