pickling,
n the process of cleansing from metallic surfaces the products of oxidation and other impurities by immersion in acid.
pickling a form of curing in which the meat is immersed in a solution of the curing agents instead of being rubbed with and packed in the dry agent (bacon curing). The method is faster but does not provide the mouthwatering, smoky dryness of a York or Virginian ham. Want to thank TFD for its existence?
