Best Quick Pickled Sweet Cucumbers Recipes
QUICK PICKLED CUCUMBER RECIPE
Crunchy, briny quick pickled cucumbers with garlic and dill. I like to add sliced green onions and some jalapenos, sliced or halved, for a little kick. These refrigerator pickles are easy to make and are ready to enjoy the next day. These pickles are savory and a bit more tangy, if you like your pickles on the sweet side, add sugar to the brine (see notes below).

Steps:
- Prepare the cucumbers. (Optional) Place the sliced cucumbers and some ice cubes in a colander in the sink for 20 minutes or so (this helps give them better crunch). Drain completely and pat dry.
- Make the Brine. In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, water, salt, mustard seed, coriander seed, peppercorn and bay leaves. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat and let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Pack cucumbers and vegetables in jars. Pack the cucumbers, green onions, jalapenos, garlic, and a few springs of dill in some wide-mouth jars (they should be packed tightly).
- Add the brine to the jars. Ladle the brine into the jars to cover the cucumbers (use the back of a spoon to push the cucumbers down to submerge). Give the jars a couple of taps to release any air bubbles and allow the cukes to settle.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate. Cover the jars tightly with their lids and refrigerate. For best results, allow the pickles a full night in the fridge before using, but you can enjoy them earlier if you like.
