How to pickle bayberry and what other ways to eat it

1. Pickling method

1. Prepare the bayberries. Select the bayberries that are plump and have thick flesh. You also need to prepare containers for pickling, and prepare salt, sugar, water, etc. After everything is ready, you can start pickling.

2. Wash the bayberries, drain the water and place them in a container. Add salt and stir to ensure even mixing. Marinate for a few days to allow the moisture in the bayberries to seep out.
