Growth of bacteria, yeasts and/or molds can cause the film. Molds growing in pickles can use the acid as food thereby raising the pH. Making sure enough vinegar is added to the cucumbers is important to make safe pickles; Clostridium botulinum can grow in improperly canned, pickled foods with a pH higher than 4.6.

How do you thicken pickle juice?

An extra pinch of arrowroot or xanthum gum, or both, will thicken this up even more (but careful - too much will give it a jello consistency). Cornstarch will also act as a thickener, or half an avocado. Each batch will differ based on the brine you made for your pickles (this one originated from pickled ramps).

Do you peel cucumbers before pickling?

Trim and discard the blossom end of the cucumbers, then peel the cucumbers and cut them into rounds about 1/4-inch thick. In a nonreactive bowl, toss them with the salt, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 or up to 24 hours (I like them after 12). Drain well, rinse, and drain again.
