Cooking tips

  • Soak licorice root beforehand and cook it with the brine to release a subtle, rich sweetness.
  • Always pour the initial brine when it’s lukewarm, not hot.
  • After 10 days, strain only the brine, re-boil it, cool completely, then pour it back over the pickles before refrigerating.
