Pickling Instructions
Prepare the Cucumbers
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into spears or leave them whole, depending on your preference.
Make the Brine
In a saucepan, combine the water, white vinegar, and kosher salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the salt is dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Pack the Jars
In sterilized jars, layer the cucumbers, garlic cloves, dill sprigs, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes.
Add the Brine
Once the brine has cooled to room temperature, pour it over the packed cucumbers in the jars, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Seal and Refrigerate
Seal the jars with lids and refrigerate. Let them pickle for at least 24 hours before consuming for optimal flavor.
