Question

What precautions must be taken for storing pickles for longer periods of time?​

Answer 1

If the pickling solution is fresh and has not been used to make pickles, cover it and store it in the refrigerator for later use. If the pickling solution has been used, it can be stored in the refrigerator and reused in a day or two for barbecue sauce, coleslaw dressing or a marinade.

Answer 2

To keep the pickles fresh till the next mango season, you may fill them up in small jars and refrigerate. This way, you will be opening a small jar which gets exhausted before absorbing much moisture, and the other jars remain fresh for a longer time as they are not exposed to moisture.
