How Does Pickling Work?

Pickling! It's that salty, briny process that makes foods taste so strangely good. The pickle garnishes our favorite foods, from burgers & hotdogs to turkey sandwiches. But it’s not only an American classic -- it has roots dating back hundreds of years and has traveled the world. From WKAR at Michigan State University, produced in cooperation with Food@MSU.
