1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into rounds or spears, depending on your preference.
2
In a large pot, combine water, white vinegar, salt, and sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar dissolve.
3
Remove the pot from heat and let the brine cool for about 15 minutes.
4
In sterilized jars, layer the sliced cucumbers, crushed garlic, dill sprigs, mustard seeds, and black peppercorns.
5
Pour the cooled brine over the cucumbers in the jars, ensuring they are fully submerged.
6
Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate. Let the pickles marinate for at least 24 hours before consuming for best flavor.
