Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Pickling is the process of preserving edible products in an acid solution, usually vinegar, or in salt solution (brine). In the latter case, the acid that does the preservative action (lactic acid mainly) is produced by fermentation. The process of pickling is also known as brining and the resulting foods as pickles.
Detailed explanation-2: -A cure dissolved in water is called a brine and works on the principle of diffusion. Because the salt solution is denser than the water in the food, equilibrium is sought thereby drawing salt and moisture into the product adding flavor and moisture to it. Brining can be done with any type of meat, fish, or poultry.
