1
Prepare the Cucumbers
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into your desired shape (spears, rounds, or halves).
2
Make the Pickling Brine
In a medium saucepan, combine water, white vinegar, turmeric, sugar, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve.
3
Add the Flavors
Stir in the dill, mustard seeds, and smashed garlic cloves into the brine. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
4
Pack the Jars
In sterilized jars, pack the sliced cucumbers tightly. Pour the cooled pickling brine over the cucumbers, ensuring they are fully submerged.
5
Refrigerate
Seal the jars and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before consuming. The flavors will develop over time.
