A cracker or a small, thin piece of bread or toast spread with cheese, meat, or relish and served as an appetizer. [French, from canapÃ©, couch, from Medieval Latin canÄpÄum, mosquito net; see canopy.]
Pickle brine is a traditional Polish hangover remedy as well, say the Strybels: Fill a glass with equal parts chilled pickle brine and ice-cold club soda, and drink the mixture down at once.
Quickly pour in the hot brine, remove air bubbles, add the lid and seal and insert immediately into your hot water bath. Once the required processing time has been reached, remove the jars from the water bath immediately. Over processing them will lead to cooked pickles, not crisp pickles.
