Time 13m

Yield 1 quart, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 quart small cucumbers or 1/4 inch sliced cucumber
1 garlic clove
3/4 teaspoon dried dill (I actually used fresh)
1/8 teaspoon turmeric
1 hot pepper (optional)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Use a 1 quart canning jar and fill with cucumbers, 1 clove garlic, 3/4 teaspoon dried dill, 1/8 teaspoon turmeric and 1 hot pepper if using.
  • Use a 4 cup microwave safe glass bowl and add 1 1/2 cups of water, 1/2 cup cider vinegar and 2 teaspoons salt. Place in microwave for 4 minutes (until it boils).
  • Remove liquid from microwave, pour it over the cucumbers in the jar. Make sure the cucumbers are covered with liquid. If not, add water to cover.
  • Use a piece of plastic wrap to loosely cover the jar. Microwave for 3 minutes. Place the cap on the jar and let cool to room temperature. Place in refrigerator. Pickles should be ready to eat when cold.
