Pickles

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cucumbers

    Wash the cucumbers thoroughly. Cut them into spears or slices, depending on your preference.

  2. 2

    Make the Pickling Solution

    In a saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, salt, sugar, garlic cloves, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes. Bring this mixture to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar dissolve.

  3. 3

    Pack the Pickles

    In sterilized jars, layer the cucumber spears or slices with dill sprigs. Pour the hot pickling solution over the cucumbers, ensuring they are fully submerged.

  4. 4

    Seal and Cool

    Seal the jars with lids and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving for the best flavor.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Enjoy your pickles in a boat or on their own! They make a great side dish or snack.
