reuse PICKLE JUICE
If you buy pickles chances are when the pickles are all gone you just throw out the juice and toss the jar! But wait! You can get good use out of that pickle juice! You can reuse the pickle juice to pickle your own vegetables and eggs or to make salad dressing. What a thrifty way to save money!
Instructions
1. You can put other vegetables in your jar of leftover pickle juice and let them get pickled! Try fresh cauliflower, broccoli floret, onions, peppers, mushrooms, carrots, cherry tomatoes... whatever you can think of! Just put them in the jar of juice and store the jar in the refrigerator for a few days and you will have pickled vegetables!
2. Another way to reuse pickle juice is to add some of the juice to pasta salads and potato salads. It really gives the salads a burst of flavor. You can also make salad dressing using pickle juice! Just mix some pickle juice with a bit of mayonnaise and you have a terrific pickled dressing!
3. You can also reuse pickle juice to make pickled eggs. But the flavor of the egg will be different than the pickled eggs you are used to. They will taste... well, they will taste like pickles! Eggs that have soaked in pickle juice are great to use for egg salad or to slice on salads. Give it a try!
4. You can use any kind of pickle juice. Obviously if you use dill pickle juice your veggies will pick up that flavor. If you use sour pickles your veggies will have pucker power! Just try different things until you get a creation that you love! And just reuse the juice once. After you pickle your veggies toss that juice and buy a new jar of pickles. And you don't have to wait until all your pickles are eaten. You can add veggies to half a jar of pickles to make your own pickled mix!
