with salt, and using the pickle press to extract moisture and pickle the
vegetables in its own brine. A large spring is attached to the bottom 
side of the lid of the pickle press, so as moisture is extracted from the
 vegetable, more pressure is applied. Any number of different vegetables 
can be pickled using the press, such as napa cabbage, cucumbers, radish, 
and eggplant. More elaborate recipes can include brine ingredients such 
as soy sauce, vinegar, miso.
