this year marks the first year that cucumbers have actually grown to be more than pretty green vines that shrivel away come august in my own garden
next to a tomato fresh from the garden, cukes are second to hold a big piece of my heart
i found myself with a quite a few cucumbers on my hands this weekend
too hot to can, these cukes were quickly turned into refrigerator pickles
as you can see they are all different sizes, traditionally pickling cukes are used but i found my straight eights did the job nicely
since the vinegar to water ratio is pretty important, i decided to research fridge pickles online
this included heading over to food gawker, typing in pickles & picking the prettiest picture
the photo linked me to big apple nosh - the recipe she used as her own guideline looked like it would work for me too- i was in business!
the prep is pretty straight forward, cut your pickles in spear- ensuring that you measure the pickle spear to fit inside the jar you are using
some were too tall - time to be creative, i sliced the bottoms into rounds for pickle slices/chips and popped them into a 32oz ball canning jar
coriander seeds
(the lady at sunflower natural food store was so excited that i was buying this )
yellow mustard seeds, black peppercorns along with fresh dill are added to the canning jars
don't forget the garlic! locally grown organic garlic beats the socks off conventionally grown supermarket garlic any day
...i am pretty sure my fingers still smell like garlic- yep a little bit.
a little ball kosher dill pickling spice was added along with the other spices
then you prepare the super fast, super easy brine that is poured over your cukes and provides you with that briny goodness
the down side to this recipe is that you have to wait about 48-72 hours for the pickles to reach their utmost brininess potential - it is worth the wait!

- fresh dill, enough for 3-4 sprigs for each jar; i used the flowers too

- 12 cloves fresh garlic - sliced (2 cloves per jar)
- 1/2 tsp per jar coriander seeds
- 1/2 tsp per jar yellow mustard seeds
- 1/2 tsp per jar peppercorns
- 4 cups distilled white vinegar (5% acidity minimum)
- 4 cups water
- 3 tbsp + 3tsp kosher salt
- 3 tbsp sugar
- cut the pickles into spears so they fit in the jar with enough room to seal the lid
- add the dill, kosher dill spice, remaining spices & sliced garlic
- to make the brine - in a large pot, stir together vinegar, water, salt & sugar. bring to a boil ensuring the sugar & salt dissolves. boil for about 2 minutes. remove from heat
- allow brine to cool for about 5 minutes. ladle into each jar so the cukes are submerged
- cap/seal the jars with band & lids and refrigerate them for about 48-72 hours
