it is best to let them dry before pickling. If they are too juicy and green they will dilute the vinegar and they will not keep nearly so well. That said if you want to slice some into vinegar and use them within a couple of days they will be perfectly fine. If you wish you can do cucumber in the same fashion.
regards Sally Wright.

I need to dry some shallots quickly for pickling. I have just eased the fork under one row, can I now lift these and lay them in supermarket trays and then stack the trays in one of the polytunnels so that they dry quickly or will this affect the shallots by being to quick ?
