Question
We have a quick method for pickling cucumbers, and we can soak the cucumbers in a mixture for a few hours, and they are ready. Is it permissible to do this on Shabbat for the third meal?
Answer
Hello Rabbi, it is forbidden to pickle vegetables on Shabbat, including preparing pickles, even if they will be ready on Shabbat itself.
