Simple Homemade Pickling Spice Mix (Ready in 5 Minutes!)
Are you planning on making a lot of pickles? Then you might want to try making your own pickle spice mix! It’s super easy to make and one batch is enough for a lot of pickles.
If the ingredient list seems a bit long don’t worry! You can really boil it down to the basics. For me the essential ingredients are mustard seeds black peppercorns or red pepper flakes and at least one of the sweet spices (allspice cinnamon or cloves). As long as you have those in the mix you can customize your mix to your liking.
Whatever spice mix you make you'll want to use about 1 1/2 teaspoons per pint of pickles (or 1 tablespoon if you're canning in a quart jar). Mix them up and get to work!
