Refrigerator Pickling

This year we decided to plant some pickling cucumbers in our garden and they are yielding some beautiful results.  Here is a recipe I got from this site.  I captured the process of making them, and the outcome was delicious.  You should give it a try if you ever decide to garden pickling cucumbers.



It's so simple.  First you gather all your ingredients:
*Pickling Cucumbers (of course)
*Mason Jar
* 3 Tbsp of Vinegar
* 2-4 cloves of garlic
*5 sprigs of fresh dill
* kosher salt
*tsp whole pepper corn

Cut the cucumbers into spears


Dice up your garlic

Put every thing into your jar, fill to the top with water, shake it up and store.  After 24 hours, turn upside-down
then wait another 24 hours.  After the 2nd 24 hrs you can eat them.  That's it!  Fresher pickles than from the store.  Make sure to refrigerate it.  Should stay good for up to a month I'm told.
