Homemade Fridge Pickles
Ingredients:
2 medium Kirby cucumbers, English and Persian cucumbers are a good substitute
1⁄2 cup of water
1⁄2 cup of apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp of honey or cane sugar
1 tsp of salt
3 garlic cloves
2 tbsp chopped dill
1 tsp black peppercorns or cracked pepper
A dash of red pepper flakes
Recipe:
Slice the cucumbers into chips or spears, whatever you prefer.
Using a small mixing bowl, combine the brine ingredients - water, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, garlic, dill, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes
Put the sliced cucumbers in a mason jar or glass container. The key here is to put them in a tight container. Pour the brine in and seal the jar
Let the pickles sit in the fridge for at least an hour and up to a few days. They will be crunchy after an hour, but more soft and flavorful after a few days!
