Many people buy pickling spice already blended because it contains a large number of individual spices, and it is often easier to purchase it rather than try to mix it yourself. A variety of zesty herbs go into pickling spice. Bulk ingredients may feature dill seed, yellow mustard seed, coriander, bay leaf, cinnamon, red chili pepper, allspice, ginger, black pepper and cloves.
Many foods can be seasoned with pickling spice. These would include the traditional cucumber pickles, but there are any number of different vegetables that take well to pickling. You could try tiny mushrooms or onions, green beans, artichoke hearts, asparagus, celery, carrots and others. Other dishes that taste great when pickling spice is added include cranberry sauce, which can be served with poultry or pork. A boiled dinner with corned beef, potatoes and cabbage often calls for this savory spice blend as well.
