Health in a jar, or why we eat pickled cucumbers and when is the best time to make them

Pickled cucumbers are a popular snack and addition to dishes. They are characterized by an acidic taste and a crunchy consistency, and they also have many health properties. They are rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin K, potassium, magnesium and manganese and contain fiber, which aids digestion and regulates blood sugar levels. Additionally, they are a great antioxidant and due to their high water content, they keep our body hydrated. They also have anti-inflammatory properties and support the immune system.

The season for canning cucumbers usually falls in summer, when they are fully ripe and available on the market. The best time to preserve them is July and August when the cucumbers are juicy and crunchy, but with a little luck you can start making them today!
