What foods can you pickle?

Answer 1

A very general definition for "pickle", is to preserve a food using a solution of water that contains salt or vinegar or both. Additional seasoning is common, but not necessary. By this very broad definition, you can pickle almost any food.

Whether it will taste good after pickling, is another question entirely (for example, Lutefisk). Meats are usually pickled with salt only and not vinegar, while vegetables & fruit have vinegar as a base.

Answer 2

Any food that can be cooked can be canned. Now the canning process, rather the storage time after the food is canned, may change the flavor and texture of the food, but if it can be cooked, it can be preserved by canning (also provided it can fit in the canning jar).
