REFRIGERATOR DILL PICKLES



Refrigerator Dill Pickles image

Using only a handful of pantry ingredients, a Mason jar, and a few hours in the refrigerator, you can make classic dill pickles that are just as tangy and flavorful as those prepared according to more traditional (and labor-intensive) canning techniques. Plus this recipe can be scaled with ease, meaning you can make just one jar or ten in a matter of minutes. So if you're a pickle lover but short on time, this method is for you.

1 cup rice wine vinegar or distilled white vinegar
Kosher salt

6 sprigs dill
3 cloves garlic
1 1/4 pounds kirby cucumbers, ends trimmed (about 4 medium cucumbers; see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Bring the vinegar, 1 1/2 cups water and 1 tablespoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the salt is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Meanwhile, place the peppercorns, red pepper flakes, dill and garlic in a 1-quart Mason (or other glass) jar. Pack the cucumbers in the jar as tightly as possible.
  • Pour the vinegar mixture over the cucumbers so the cucumbers are completely submerged. Leave uncovered and allow to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 day before using. The pickles will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

I received this recipe from the McCormick Web site in a weekly e-mail. I have made a few changes to suit our tastes. I now have to limit our family to 1 quart a week or they will eat 3 quarts weekly. This makes a very sour pickle with loads of flavor. It also makes an excellent addition to most cold salads.Hope you enjoy this as much as we do. (cooking time stated is cooling time and prep time is soaking and prep time)

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.
