PICKLES!!!!

Homemade pickles that is!! Went to Alemany Farmer's market one weekend to get some fresh produce, ps amazing farmer's market, and bought some pickling cucumbers. I googled a pickle recipe and got to work :) 6 weeks later I gave them a try, but I let them sit a few more weeks and now they are perfect.. mmm! Crunchy, vinegary, and delicious!!! The cucumbers were roughly $2 and I had everything else in the house so it was a pretty inexpensive treat :)

Recipe:

Ingredients:

1 quart water

1 quart white vinegar

1/2 cup non-iodized salt

Few sprigs dill weed

1/2 head garlic- sliced

1 tablespoon peppercorns

6 pickling cucumbers (sliced or whole)

Directions:

Combine water, vinegar, and salt in a pot and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, add dill, garlic, peppercorns and cucumbers to sterilized jars. Pour liquid over cucumbers and fill jars. Seal the jars and refrigerate for at least 6 weeks. Like I said I did a few extra.
