Quoted message said:Hello all, I am going to be making my first German
Sauerbaten recipe. Almost everyone that I have found
call for "picklng spices" or "mixed pickling spices".
What are they, and can you buy them in the dried spice
sectio of the supermarket? Or do you have to mix your
own. I have never seen them before,but wasn't really
looking. Any help?

pickling spices A spice blend used in mixtures to PICKLE
various foods, as well as to season certain dishes. The
blend can differ greatly according to the manufacturer, and
the ingredients (usually whole or in coarse pieces) can
include allspice, bay leaves, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves,
coriander, ginger, mustard seeds and peppercorns.
Prepackaged pickling spice mixes are sold in most
supermarkets. © Copyright Barron's Educational Services,
