They could be very dry or not, Thaw and see. Scrap and salt them any way.


I'd try them!

Sorry Ed - I was away at the World Show! But JohnC gave you good advice! Take them out and thaw them. If they have "freezer burned" skins, then I'd advise using our Ultra-Soft (US-609) product to wet them out. We have have had great feedback concerning its ability to gently wet back freezer burned skins, before you place them in the pickle and handle them as normal.


thanks guys
