can you put pickles in a preserving crock

Yes. I've made pickles from cucumber, water, salt, a grape leaf, garlic, and pepper corns.

Sure! The interior is glazed, so you can make or store pickles in one. I've used them for making sauerkraut and other fermented foods.

These containers work well. I make then freeze large batches of soup in them all the time. i also use them for large amounts of marinara sauce I freeze. I don't see why you couldn't transfer the contents to a crockpot and then warm up. These are pretty heavy duty containers and can be used over and over again.

I put mine in the refrigerator overnight so I can get the amount I want for conch salad the next day and return the rest of the semi-frozen pieces to the freezer.

no there packed in salt and will be fine once you open them then you should refrigerate.

No ,I just use a saucepan on the cook top. You need to keep checking the oats while they are simmering and keep stirring, so I do not think a crockpot is a good idea. You cannot just put it in a crockpot with lliquid and not check on it for a long time.Deb

Sharon, thank you for your question. These lunchable Crocks were very tough to find. I do not know of where other inside containers can be found. You may attempt to find them at Bed Bath and Beyond type retailers near you. Have a great day!

you can use a crock pot and mix the solution per directions. BUT, once you use this crock pot, you can not use it again for Food. Please remember this. hope this helps you

I've never tried it . I usually just take out as much as I need and put it in the microwave. I would think that, as hot as the insert gets in the Crock Pot, it should be fine in the oven.

So long as you sear your meat prior to placing it in the roaster it should work. Personally I use my crock pot for post roasts because the roaster is so large. Just remember you can't use cooking bags in the roaster either.

I think you could pick up p-nut butter, syrup, canned goods etc. I would be careful with pickles if quarts,glass liquid etc. It might work,but just use caution.

No, I wouldn't put the crock pot in the oven. I would read and follow the instructions . From what I have read the crock is not designed for use in the oven.

Not composted or pickled. It's just temporary storage prior to taking somewhere else (compost bin, etc.). It only holds about a gallon of waste.

Don't know much about pickling or picklers but whatever you can do with the smaller, coffee bean storage size, you should be able to accomplish with the larger. I'd stay away from really hot liquids on account of the plastic leeching and other things. I think this system is best for non-liquid stuff.

Yes. I would recommend you have two blocks. One for chilling items and one for cooking. I use the cooking one often and find that salmon, scallops, shrimp and veggies do really well. I have better recipes for red meat, tried but was not happy with results. Try sea salt caramels on a chilled block.

I would personally not think it would be a good idea, as water is the first ingredient in The Smart Balance in my refrigerator , and it would break down at room temperature. And to preserve the butter in the crock you add cool water, I would not think it would preserve well, sorry.

I have not tried it in a crockpot, but I can't think of any reason why not. I can't think of any reason you'd want to use it in a crockpot, there you usually want your ingredients cooking in the juices. Give it a try.
