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.

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.

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.

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 cloves garlic, peeled
4 teaspoons dill seed
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
3 pounds kirby cucumbers (or other unwaxed, small-seeded 4- to 5-inch pickling cucumbers)
2 ¼ cups apple cider vinegar

Pour or ladle hot brine into jars, covering cucumbers and leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Tap jars gently to remove any air bubbles. Add more brine if necessary to leave 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe rims clean with a damp paper towel.
  • Let cool completely to room temperature, about 1 hour. Apply clean lids. Refrigerate at least 48 hours before eating for best flavor. (Flavor improves with time.) Store in refrigerator up to 1 month.

REFRIGERATOR DILLS

I got this recipe from a friend, who got it from a friend, who got it from a friend,... you get the picture. I like these pickles because they are so easy and very good. You can leave out the peppers if you don't like the "bite". They keep a long time, I've had mine in the extra fridge since last year and I'm just finishing them up. They do have to be stored in the fridge, though. Hope you like them!!
