--------  ------------  --------------------------------
 Use of canning or pickling salt is recommended.
 Fermented and non-fermented pickles may be safely made
 using either iodized or non-iodized table salt.
 However, non-caking materials added to table salts may
 make the brine cloudy. Flake salt varies in density
 and is not recommended for use.

 Reduced-sodium salts, for example, "Lite Salt" may be
 used in quick pickle recipes, as indicated in this
 guide. The pickles may, however, have a slightly
 different taste than expected. Caution: Use of
 reduced-sodium salt in fermented pickle recipes is not
 recommended.
