This is interesting to me. I didn't know there was such a thing and I make regular pickles (vinegar/canned). But I'm not that fond of my own recipe because I don't put in enough sugar.
I wonder if some of the Japanese pickles were brined/fermented. They must have been because I could never figure out the taste.
Do you have any recipes for these? I don't have cucumbers right now, but am likely to have them come late spring. Sometimes I grow so many I can't eat them all and other years I get one or two. Last year was a bad year so I expect this year to be a good one!
