The main difference between salt and pickling salt is that pickling salt is a pure form of salt without any additives like iodine or anti-caking agents. This makes pickling salt ideal for preserving foods through the pickling process, as it won't affect the color or taste of the final product.

Can you use canning pickling salt to brine turkey?

Yes - you can use pickling salt to brine turkey. The main difference between pickling salt and other salts are grain size and iodine. Table salt has iodine, pickling salt does not. The iodine is only added to table salt to add that nutrient to our diet; it has no effect on brining turkey - it doesn't hurt but it doesn't help. Pickling salt is also very fine-grained, to speed up dissolving in water to create a brine, so it is useful for solutions needing salt. Typically it is even finer grained than table salt and much finer than rock salt or kosher salt. When you think about it, canning salt really is designed for brining processes so not only CAN you use it to brine turkey - it would probably be the PREFERRED type of salt to use to brine turkey.

Can you replace citric acid for pickling lime?

Pickling lime used to be an accepted method of adding crispness to pickled cucumbers. The USDA no longer recommends use of pickling lime. Pickling lime is alkaline and must all be washed off of the cucumbers or it can result in a less acidic pickling solution. It the pickling solution is not acidic enough it can allow botulism an environment in which to grow. Botulism cases have been linked to this situation and this is the reason it is no longer recommended.
