Spicy Refrigerator Pickles, No Sugar

Spicy Refrigerator Pickles, No Sugar

Do you really need a long story with a "skip to recipe" button at the top? I doubt it. Here's my new
recipe for amazing, spicy pickles that can easily be made in the fridge. No fussing, no canning! No sugar. 

Spicy Pickles

Bring brine to a boil, set aside and allow to cool slightly while you do the next steps

Brine:

1 cup white vinegar

1 cup water

4 teaspoons salt

Next Steps:

Put Spices in 1 quart jar:

1 teaspoon mustard seed (I used black - 'cause that's what I have)

1 teaspoon black peppercorns

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (like the kind they put on pizza)

1 generous teaspoon minced garlic (I use the kind in a jar that they sell in the grocery produce section)

1 scant teaspoon turmeric

Cut Cucumbers in spears to snugly fill a 1 quart jar (this was 2 large cucumbers for me)

Poor brine (above) over to cover, (you may need to discard a little, depending on your situation)

Cool completely.

Place in fridge 24 to 48 hours

Enjoy!
