About the Recipe

Fridge pickles are an easy and delicious way to use up summer produce. No sterilizing jars or special equipment required.

Ingredients

  • 1¼ cups white vinegar

  • 3 tbs kosher salt

  • 2 tbs sugar

  • 2 cups cold water

  • 2-6 cucumber cut into rounds or spears

  • 2 tbs coriander seeds

  • 6 garlic cloves halved

  • 1 tsp mustard seeds

  • 16 dill sprigs or 6 dill heads

Preparation

  • Combine the vinegar, salt and sugar in a small saucepan over high heat. Whisk until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Transfer the liquid into a bowl and whisk in the cold water. Refrigerate brine until ready to use.

  • Stuff the cucumbers into two clean jars. Add the coriander seeds, garlic cloves, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes, dill sprigs, and chilled brine into jars, dividing evenly. If necessary, add a bit of cold water to the jars until the brine covers the cucumbers. Cover and refrigerate about 24 hours, then enjoy for up to one month.
