Refrigerator Dill Pickles - a quick, easy, and delicious quick pickles recipe! Learn how to make the BEST homemade pickled cucumber recipe that is slightly sweet, a little tangy, and has a drink-worthy juice that is absolutely addicting!
RECIPE: www.evolvingtable.com/refrige...
INGREDIENTS:
⅔ cup distilled white vinegar
⅓ cup water
1 ¼ tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. sugar
2 cloves garlic whole
1 tsp. peppercorns
1 pinch red pepper
3 dill sprigs
4-5 cocktail cucumbers cut into 4 spears
INSTRUCTIONS:
Add vinegar, water, salt, and sugar to a medium-sized pot or sauce pan and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes or until sugar is completely dissolved.
Place garlic cloves, peppercorns, red pepper flake, and dill sprigs in the bottom of a 16-oz. mason jar.
Add cucumber spears to the jar in a vertical orientation. Pour vinegar solution over cucumbers and add additional water as needed to completely cover the cucumbers.
Refrigerate pickles at least overnight or up to 3-4 days for the best results. Pickles will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 4 months and will slowly lose their crispness after that.
RECIPE NOTES:
Nutritional information is an estimate based on only half of the solution being consumed.
A 16-oz. mason jar works best. The wide mouth jars will also work equally as well.

These are our favorite pickles to make. We love the taste, which is not too dill. The only thing we did differently was to add a homegrown pepper from our garden to each jar and to give them a water bath at 180 degrees for 30 minutes to increase the shelf life. They are amazing and everyone who tastes them loves them. And talking about easy. Thanks for sharing your recipe and video, which was fun to watch!

I was curious about that too. I googled and found this ... "Secure lids, and place in the refrigerator. The pickles will be ready to eat in 4 days, much better if you wait a week, and even better if you can wait 2 weeks before sampling. They will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 months but will start to lose their crunch after that.Jul 1, 2019" How long did you find the crunch lasted for yours?

I think it just comes down to preference and how long your actually able to refrain from eating them while they sit......notice how she said they keep getting better over time.....I'm guessing the amount of time she gives in this video(4 hours to overnight)is jus how long it takes to notice a change in flavor from cucumber to pickle......achieving the ideal dill flavor with the vinegar I'd imagine would be a longer process......but idk just an educated guess tho I'm no pickle expert although I do love them and will be experimenting on making them because of this video

I bought Kirby cucumbers, just two, and used what I already had: white balsamic and white wine vinegars diluted with water, pink salt from Dollar Tree, peppercorns, garlic powder, a pinch of red pepper flakes and a drop of agave syrup. My brine would work as very short term preservation of any vegetables that can stand up to sitting in liquid for a week or so without turning mushy.
