Home Pickling Endeavor Perfectly Timed with IKEA's Latest Kitchen Collection Launch
IKEA's latest collection, KÖSSEBÄR, is a delight for those who love pickling and preserving summer's bounty. This collection blends practicality with aesthetics, offering a range of stylish and functional pickling accessories.
At the heart of the collection are clear, airtight, space-efficient glass jars with attractive shapes and patterns. These jars, available in sizes up to 34 oz, are perfect for pickling vegetables, jams, and preserves. They are dishwasher-safe, transparent for easy content viewing, and come in soft square or bottle shapes, making them a space-saving addition to any kitchen.
Complementing the jars, IKEA offers a bottle-shaped jar with a lid, ideal for juices, oils, or pickled foods. This jar features a natural rubber seal to keep flavors fresh and a stainless steel wire latch for secure closure. There's also a ribbed glass jar with airtight sealing, perfect for pickled vegetables or as a decorative serving vessel.
The KÖSSEBÄR collection doesn't stop at jars. It also includes a bamboo vegetable drying rack and a coordinating apron, enhancing the visual and practical pickling experience.
Beyond IKEA, other home goods stores offer accessories that fit well with a vintage or cottagecore style. These include decorative mason jars, patterned storage bags, and rustic serving pieces. IKEA's KÖSSEBÄR collection shares this nostalgic, homely aesthetic, embracing gingham, wicker, and florals, making it a perfect fit for a cozy pickling and kitchen display.
Other practical additions to your pickling setup include a collapsible bamboo fruit basket with a lid from IKEA, and an elevated storage solution like the Willow wood basket from ABASK.
For those who enjoy the art of pickling, labels might be considered slightly over-the-top, but they are attractive and useful for gifting pickled goods. Flying Tiger offers labels in a primary color pack that are suitable for marking the date of pickling or writing notes. Alternatively, Anthropologie offers an embroidered apron with a neutral color scheme, scalloped detailing, and green trim.
For those who prefer homemade ice cream, smoothies, and iced desserts during the summer, the Ninja Creami alternatives are options worth considering. And let's not forget the essential yellow tea towel, which is on-trend and practical while pickling.
Lastly, subscribing to your favourite interiors website newsletters provides trend forecasts, smart style ideas, and curated shopping inspiration for your home, helping you stay ahead of the curve and create the perfect pickling setup.
Emma Breislin, the interiors editor of our website, recently visited a wine bar in Biarritz with shelves lined with pretty jars of pickled produce. This just goes to show that a practical yet visually pleasing pickling setup can be a beautiful addition to any kitchen.
