No, pickles come from cucumbers that are harvested and then pickled in a vinegar solution to preserve them. Cucumbers are grown on a vine plant.
Typically, there are no seeds in a pickle. Pickles are cucumbers that have been pickled in vinegar or brine, which does not involve keeping the seeds.
No, vinegar does not prevent lactic acid fermentation in pickles. In fact, vinegar is a byproduct of the fermentation process that occurs when cucumbers are pickled. Lactic acid bacteria naturally present on the vegetables convert sugars into lactic acid, which gives pickles their tangy flavor.
The ratio of food preservative to vinegar in pickles can vary depending on the recipe used. Generally, a common ratio is about 1:3, meaning 1 part food preservative to 3 parts vinegar. However, it's important to follow a specific pickle recipe to ensure the proper balance of flavors and preservation.
