Refrigerator Pickles
By jojomail1
Quick and easy pickle recipe, came from Annie's Organic buying club
- Cucumber spears, I use either 1 English cucumber or about 6 pickling cucs.
- 2 cups cold water.
- 1/3 cup white wine vinegar - you can change this to suit your taste, but I wouldn't use balsamic.
- believe it or not, the cheaper vinegars give me the best pickling flavor.
- 1 tablespoon salt. Table salt or sea salt. I've never tried pickling salt.
- 2 teaspoons sugar.
- 5 whole peppercorns - fresh.
- fresh ground pepper (from a grinder is best).
- 1-2 cloves garlic.
- optional flavor additions: fresh dill, jalapeno pepper, onion, habanero pepper, etc.
- and a container to put them in. A mason type jar works best, but I usually take the easy route
- and use a ziplock freezer bag. Don't use a metal container.
