or create a pickle out of all kinds of diced fruit or vegetable. Peaches, plums, cherries, onions, carrots, cucumber, green beans, etc... the choice is yours.

Bring all the ingredients for the brine to boil until the sugar and salt dissolve. Let it steep for 10 minutes.
Place the vegetable/fruit in a large heatproof bowl. Pour the brine, straining out the spices if necessary, directly over the vegetable/fruit to cover.
Wrap the bowl tightly in plastic wrap and allow pickles to cool to room temperature before refrigerating. Will be good to eat in an hour and will last in the fridge for 2 weeks.
Your recipes r innovative but for fruits there shold be some modification
I just watched you on global, August 17th, and I was wondering if one could jar cherries with the same brine? If so would one need to be the sour cherries to get the effect one wants? Actually would you use the same brine for fruits that you would use for vegetables and pickles?
