Number Of Ingredients 2

1 jar leftover pickle juice
8 cocktail cucumbers

Steps:

  • Wash and slice your cucumbers to the desired shape or size. For this recipe, I cut them lengthwise to make pickle spears. You can also slice them or leave them whole.
  • Add the cucumbers to the leftover juice from store-bought pickles and close lid.
  • Refrigerate at least 24 hours.
  • Pickles can be stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 years. Enjoy the pickles and you can even make up to 4 batches of homemade pickles using the same jarred leftover pickle juice.

PICKLES FROM LEFTOVERS

I remember hearing that you can make a new jar of pickles from your leftover jar of pickle juice (brine), so thats what I did! I bought my favorite jar of pickles, BA-TAMPTE Garlic Dill pickles, 32oz. size. And when all the pickles were gone, I saved the jar with the leftover juice inside. It was slightly more than 1/2 full. Then I bought some tiny cucumbers, on sale, 12oz package for $1.50, that I washed and sliced in half. I placed them in the jar, added a splash of white vinegar and water, to completely cover the cukes...close the jar and put it in the fridge for 1-2 weeks. Then you have a new jar of pickles for 1/2 the price!
