Why do cucumbers grow turbid?

Canned pickled cucumbers - a good snack in the winter. But sometimes they can become clouded. What is the problem? Let's list the main reasons why salted cucumbers may become turbid:

• improperly prepared dishes for harvesting cucumbers. You need to wash the jars carefully with warm water and soda. And then rinse them well;
• insufficient sterilization. The microbes that are preserved will be fed with canned food and emit gases. Cucumbers can become clouded. To avoid this, you should always rinse the jars with warm water and steam well upside down for 5 minutes;
• leaky clogging of jars. Tin lids should be thoroughly boiled and washed. Then you need to tightly roll up the jar. Since microorganisms can enter the jar with the air;
• all spices and vegetables (dill, currant leaves) before you put in a jar, you need to wash thoroughly in warm water;
• The presence of chips on the neck of the can or cracks. With air in the jar germs can penetrate;
• lactic fermentation, that is insufficientthe amount of vinegar in the brine. Despite careful preparation of products and dishes, salted cucumbers can become clouded. It is necessary to drain all the brine from the jars, rinse the cucumbers and pour them with a strong marinade;
• not a suitable variety of cucumbers. For example, the salad look of cucumbers can cause them to cloud;
• iodized salt;
• storage of cucumbers in a warm place.
