Yunnan sour pickles are common people's home-made pickles. Every winter in Yunnan, almost every family will make a jar of sour pickles for later use. The method of making sour pickles is simple and easy. In winter and spring, every family washes the green vegetables commonly known as bitter vegetables and hangs them to dry.
