Mixed herb pickle is a tangy, salty preserve made by keeping a variety of edible herbs in a vinegar-and-salt brine. The exact herbs vary by recipe and region, and it is usually served as a small accompaniment rather than a main dish.
There is no fixed herb mix for mixed herb pickle. Recipes use locally available edible herbs, sometimes combining wild greens with aromatic leaves. Use only wild plants you can identify with certainty, since some lookalikes are unsafe to eat.
To make mixed herb pickle, clean and trim the edible herbs, pack them into a clean jar, then cover them with vinegar-and-salt brine. Some recipes allow fermentation in the brine; keep the herbs submerged and follow a tested recipe for safe preserving.
Mixed herb pickle pairs well with beans and other legumes, grilled meat, rice, or a sandwich, where its sharp, salty taste balances milder foods. Serve a small amount alongside the meal, especially if the other dishes are already salty.
Mixed herb pickle can be made either by fermenting herbs in brine or by preserving them directly with vinegar and salt. Vinegar alone does not mean a pickle has naturally fermented, and the method affects its flavor and whether it contains live microbes.
Not always. Unpasteurized mixed herb pickle made through natural fermentation may contain live microbes, but vinegar-pickled or heat-treated versions may not. A sour taste by itself does not show that a pickle contains probiotic cultures.
Keep opened mixed herb pickle refrigerated with the lid closed, and make sure the herbs stay covered by brine. Use a clean utensil each time; discard it if you notice mold, an unpleasant smell, or an unusual slimy texture.
Mixed herb pickle can add herbs and a strong flavor to a meal, but it is not a substitute for fresh greens. Its salt content makes portion size worth considering, particularly when the rest of the meal includes other salty foods.
Mixed herb pickle is made with salt, but how salty it tastes varies with the recipe. If you want less salt, use a smaller serving or briefly rinse the herbs before eating; rinsing will also soften their flavor.
Yes, you can stir mixed herb pickle into soups, bean dishes, or sauces as a sharp seasoning. Add it toward the end of cooking to retain more of its distinct tang, and taste before adding extra salt.

Mixed herb pickle is a traditional preserve made by fermenting a variety of edible herbs with vinegar and salt. The choice of herbs varies with the region, season and household, so the mix can change from jar to jar. Its flavour is tangy, salty and distinctly green; the herbs may stay pleasantly firm or soften as they ferment.
In Turkey, it is served in small amounts alongside beans, rice and other home-cooked meals, or as part of a meze spread. It is low in energy and provides some fibre, but pickles can be salty. A quick rinse can soften the saltiness before serving; its sharp flavour also pairs well with plain yoghurt dishes and pulses.
