Hello ma'am,

Pickle's recipe is nice but i've a doubt about sodium benzoate. .... when n how to use it as preservative in pickle.when to add it in pickle. You mentioned it in the list of ingredients but have not given its quantity. ... I wanna do 5 kg mango pickle so pls suggest me how much i have to use it n when n how to add it ....pls suggest me its proportion per kg mango picle.....

Which particular recipe are you asking about Gunjan? I don't normally use it in my pickles, but it may be someone else's recipes hosted by me.

Potassium sorbate would be something I use instead of the benzoate. Sorbic acid is found in fruits, so could be classed as 'natural'.
