Steps:
- 1. PICKLE BRINE
- 2. Gather your ingredients.
- 3. Thoroughly, clean out the containers that you are going to use for your pickles.
- 4. Chef's Note: These are not "canned" pickles. These are keep 'em in the refrigerator and eat within a week or two pickles.
- 5. Place all the brine ingredients in a saucepan, and bring to a slow simmer, allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.
- 6. Chef's Note: If you want Bread-and-Butter type pickles add 1-1/2 cups sugar, or honey. Skip this for dill pickles.
- 7. While the brine is simmering, wash and dry the cucumbers, and cut off the blossom end.
- 8. Chef's Tip: The blossom end of a cucumber contains enzymes that, over time, cause your pickles to go limp. And if there's anything that I hate... It's a limp pickle.
- 9. Slice the pickles into spears or ovals... Up to you.
- 10. Remove the brine solution from the heat and allow it to cool to about 110-115f/43-46c.
- 11. Chef's Note: You can fully cool the brine down, and then add it to the cucumbers, but then you'll need to put them in the fridge for a couple of days before digging in. If you use really hot brine, you'll wind up making limp pickles... And you KNOW how I feel about limp pickles. 110f/43c is a balance between waiting a few days or a few hours...
- 12. Divide the dill weed, and garlic between two 1-pint containers. Or whatever container you choose to use.
- 13. Chef's Tip: Dill isn't all you can make! Swap out the dill seed for tumeric, black peppercorns, mustard seeds, or any other spices that sound good to you.
- 14. Put as many sliced cucumbers into the jars as can fit without smashing.
- 15. Pour in the brine, making sure that you cover all the cucumbers, and then allow the containers to cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
- 16. Chef's Tip: A handful of fresh grape, raspberry, oak, blackberry or cherry leaves (these types of leaves supply tannins, which help keep the pickles crispy and crunchy)
- 17. Chef's Note: They should last in the refrigerator for about two weeks... assuming they don't get gobbled up first.
- 18. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
EASY DILL PICKLES
When canning any vegetable it is highly recommended that you hot water bath them. Pickles should be boiled in the jars for ten full minutes. If you add more water to the pot, wait until boil starts again to resume timing.

REFRIGERATOR DILL PICKLES
These pickles taste so fresh and have just the right amount of dill and garlic. They taste great along-side a hotdog on a bun. They also taste great alone as a healthy snack. The pickles should be good for 6 weeks. Enjoy! You can also cut cucumbers into chips if you prefer a pickle chip instead of a spear.

- To make pickling syrup you need to combined water, sugar and salt in a large pot. Bring it to a boil stirring constantly until sugar and salt dissolves. As soon as it boils reduce the heat and let it boil for 5 minutes. Remove from the stove and let it cool.
- Add seasonings to each jar: small piece of horseradish leaf (optional, I’ve canned pickles without it as well; adding the leaf ads crispiness to pickles the natural way), one small branch of fresh dill including blossom ends, 2 bay leaves, 2 -3 garlic cloves, 20 peppercorns, and 1/8 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes.
- Place 4 jars into a Stove top canner pot, and fill it with water until the level reaches ¾ of jars (not a pot).
- Flip the jar upside down. Let the jars cool completely before turning them over to a regular position (I let them stand flipped upside down until the next day about 12 hrs). Repeat the same steps with the rest of the jars.
