These keep in the fridge for 4 weeks. They need to sit 2 days before they are ready to eat. I rotate the jar on day one and 2 mixing up the herbs that settle on the bottom.
This recipe makes 2 jars.
1 3/4 Cup of white vinegar
3/4 Cup of sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Mustard seed
1/2 tsp Celery seed
1/2 tsp Coriander seed
1/2 tsp Tumeric
1/4 tsp Red pepper flake
1/4 tsp Ground black pepper
4 to 5 Pickling cucumbers
1/2 White onion cut in 1/2 and thinly sliced
4 Cloves of garlic thinly sliced
2 Bay leaves
Put all of the ingredients through the black pepper in a sauce pan and cook until the sugar had dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
Chop your cucumbers, onion and garlic. Take your 1 qt jars and drop in a bay leaf. Put in some cucumber and top it with onion and garlic and repeat, I usually make 3 layers. Fill both jars and pour over the pickling liquid and let cool completely. Put your lid on and refrigerate.
