By replacing the water and salt with pickle brine, I made a lovely dill dough that became a delicious pickle bread.

I bet it would make a mean grilled cheese.

I made an olive loaf a while ago that I substituted an amount of the salt and water for olive brine to really make it stand out, and trying to figure out the salt % after drove me mad, even if it turned out well regardless. I ended up buying a salinity refractometer that I think is often used for aquariums, but haven’t had a chance to try again with it yet.
Originally got the idea from an Earl Grey tea bread I had heard about. Very fun experiment to pursue in the least. Glad it worked out for you!

I think my 12 yr old would love this because she loves pickles so I’m gonna offer her to try making it herself 😊 Thanks!

Be careful of the yeast levels with your dill dough.

Interesting! I’d love to try this! Just wondering if the vinegars in the pickle brine would inhibit yeast activity? Does the high ph of vinegar (an acid) kill off the yeast?

It’s always nice to surprise your grandma with a fresh dill dough for her birthday.

Just replace your salt and water with the pickle brine on your favorite recipe. The pickle flavor was there, but it wasn’t a huge punch to the face. It was honestly the perfect amount of pickle flavor to enjoy it various ways. It made for a great turkey sandwich bread, I also did sloppy joes with it, and even just buttered toast was delicious.

Be careful, a salty dill dough may cause your yeast to rise!

I have been making this King Arthur rye bread recipe every week for the past three weeks, which used part dill pickle juice for the hydration as you mentioned.
I use home milled rye with King Arthur organic bread flour and use the 198g of water vs 152g and let it autolyse for 30 minutes instead of 20 to allow the water to soak into the freshly milled flour better. The flavor is so good and it rises very well.
I’ve tried it with both Grillo and Claussen pickle juice and preferred Claussen. Makes amazing Swiss grilled cheese sandwiches!

Grillos brine is the best. What a great idea!
Are we still doing phrasing?

Dill dough 😅
Glad I am not the only one laughing at this
You made what?

Say that out loud
There’s gotta be a better name. lol

The level of immature comments in this post…
I LOVE IT! =D
Did the dough have you buzzing with excitement?
