Dill Pickles
Just a few days after making sweet pickles, I had about 10 cucumbers ready for harvest. Looks like dill pickles it is.
I added three sprigs of dill, 2 garlic cloves, and 1/4 tsp. of red pepper flakes to each jar. I sliced the cucumbers in rounds so that they would be perfect for hamburgers. I made up a brine of 3 cups water, 2 cups vinegar, and 1/4 cup pickling salt. After the jars were filled with cucumbers I added in the brine leaving 1/2 inch of head space.
Finished them off by processing the jars for 10 minutes.
Just have to wait 4-6 weeks to try them out!
