"Pickled cucumbers are one of the most popular side dishes among the Indonesian people. The deliciousness of pickled cucumbers lies in the combination of refreshing sourness and the crunchy texture of the cucumbers that can whet the appetite. This dish often serves as a perfect complement to various main dishes such as fried rice, satay, or chicken noodles. In fact, for some people, the presence of pickled cucumbers on the dining table can enhance their appetite. However, many experience difficulties in maintaining the crunchy texture of pickled cucumbers after a few days of storage. The fermentation process and soaking in vinegar solution often cause the cucumbers to become soft, which not only changes the texture but also the flavor of the pickles themselves. Therefore, many people are looking for ways to make pickled cucumbers that remain crunchy and delicious for a longer period. Chef Aaron Laksana, a chef and content creator, shares simple yet effective tricks to make pickled cucumbers that stay crunchy. Through his personal Instagram account, Chef Aaron reveals that the secret to maintaining the crunchiness of cucumbers is by using salt. Salt has the ability to draw out excess water from the cucumbers, which is the main cause of cucumbers becoming soft when stored. Here are the steps to make pickled cucumbers summarized from Briliofood.net, Wednesday (24/07/2024)."
