Question is there a difference between pickling spice and whole spice ? i have a recipe for pickles that calls for while spice i can't seem to find this can i subsitute the pickling spice?
Answer Sandi, whole spices mean that they have not been crushed or cut. Pickling spices are normally whole spices. Just check the ingredients on the pickling spices to see if they match the recipe calling for whole. They are one and the same.
