Hello everyone!!
    Are you an amateur farmer with a garden bursting with an overabundance of cucumbers… or just someone who would love to make fresh pickles at home? Well I’ve got an amazing “Quick Pickle” recipe for you!
    Traditionally, pickling is a great way to preserve part of your summer harvest in a brine solution to enjoy much later in the year but these Quick Pickles are a bit simpler and are best enjoyed the next day (or up to a month).
    Here’s what you need…
  • 1 pound Kirby cucumbers, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons – plus 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon pickling spice
  • 1 clove garlic
  • A few sprigs dill
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Toss the sliced cucumbers with 2 tablespoons salt. Let chill for 1 hour. Rinse and drain. Combine the water, vinegar, pickling spice, 2 teaspoons salt, garlic, dill, and sugar. Stir to dissolve. Add cucumbers and refrigerate in airtight containers overnight (or up to 1 month).

Be good…

Chef Jason
