Time P1DT15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound Kirby or other small cucumbers
1 small sweet yellow onion
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup water
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pickling spice, homemade or store-bought

Steps:

  • Wash and dry the jars and cucumbers: Wash 2 wide-mouth pint jars and their lids in hot, soapy water. Set them aside to dry. Rinse the cucumbers well under cold water, pat them dry, and then set them on a towel to dry completely.
  • Slice the cucumbers and onion, then pack them in the jars: With a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, slice the cucumbers and onion into slices 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick. Firmly pack the cucumbers and onions into the jars, fitting in as many as you can without smashing the vegetables. Leave 1/2 inch or so of headspace at the top of the jars.
  • Make the brine: In a small non-reactive saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and pickling spice up to a simmer. Stir occasionally and continue simmering until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
  • Pour the brine over the vegetables: If you have a canning funnel, use it here to make it easier to fill the jars. Carefully pour or ladle the hot brine into each jar, filling the jars until the cucumbers and onions are covered. It's okay if a few small pieces poke out the top.
  • Cool and refrigerate for 24 hours: Screw on the lids, then let the jars cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). The cucumbers will start off bright green, but will become darker and more "pickle-colored" as they cool. Place them in the refrigerator. Wait at least 24 hours before eating the pickles in order to let the flavors develop. Enjoy them within 1 month.

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.

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.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup rice wine vinegar or distilled white vinegar
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
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.
