How to Unlock and Make Pickles from Cucumbers

Although Cultural Delights adds both cucumbers and pickles to the game, you cannot craft pickles with Cultural Delights installed on its own. Turning fresh cucumbers into pickles relies on cross-mod integration that handles the pickling process.

Enabling Pickling Support

Making pickles strictly requires the Brewin’ and Chewin’ mod to be active alongside Cultural Delights.

1. Check your active mods folder—and the server's mods folder if you play on multiplayer—to verify that Brewin’ and Chewin’ is present.

2. Load into your world and open the recipe book or a recipe viewer to search for pickles.

3. Confirm that the pickling recipe now displays properly instead of showing an uncraftable item.

Growing Cucumbers for Pickling

Once both mods are working together, prepare a hydrated farmland patch using a hoe and plant cucumbers in a well-lit area. Harvest the mature cucumbers regularly to build up a bulk supply. Take your harvested cucumbers to the preparation setup shown in the recipe book under Brewin’ and Chewin’, supply the required companion ingredients, and complete the process to stock up on pickles for your adventures.
