Los encurtidos son productos comestibles que alargan su vida estando sumergidos en vinagre o salmuera. No son solo ingredientes, se han ido fortaleciendo como técnica culinaria ya que aportan características especiales de sabor y color a las preparaciones. La estética gastronómica los ha hecho populares en este momento contemporáneo-creativo en el mundo.
Los encurtidos se usan para fermentar y conservar.

Desde cuándo se hacen?
Pues les cuento que los encurtidos datan desde hace mil años atrás pero de la invención de la escritura! ni siquiera estamos hablando de Jesucristo, es una preparación tan antigua como la humanidad misma. Se cuenta que los Sirios encargados de introducir las aceitunas en Europa fueron pioneros en la técnica experimentando diversas formas de encurtir aceitunas.
Historical details
Ok, just to be clear the pickled are really antique! Are visible in the history of world gastronomy since 1.000 years but before humans start to write, even Jesus wasn’t a plan in that moment…are so old like humanity it is.
Culinary historians talk about Syrians and how important was the introduction of olives, for example, into Europe and how this people are developing by generations great flavours and mixture for pickled olives. Yes, Middle East and Europe cuisine are the pioneers of this method.
Los encurtidos pueden ser vegetales y las mas populares en Colombia son las cebollitas dulces de Santander, sin embargo, se pueden encurtir desde zanahorias, cebollas rojas, zuchinni, tomates , berenjenas, olivas, frutos y hasta quesos y pescados.
Yo les dejo mi receta para un encurtido dulce con Zanahoria y cebolla roja.
