RE: Any Suggestions For Making CRUNCHY Pickles? - hope it's not too late

[Guest guest]

A bit late, but better late.

Here's a recipe for Israeli pickles:

 

All the vegetables should be washed.

The jar should be rinsed with boiling water

Place on the bottom of the jar 2-3 cloves of garlic (peeled and cut).

Add a bunch of dill

Add a hot (or more) chili pepper

Place the washed cucumbers in the jar - pressing them in (I like to put them

vertically and pressure push the last one in to hold the rest).

Pour warm water (cooled boiling water) - cup by cup counting the number of

cups

Add 1 teaspoon of salt per cup of water.

Add on top some additional peeled and cut cloves of garlic.

Close the jar and place in a warm area for 4-5 days. The color of the

cucumbers will change from light green to a pickley green after a few days..

Shake the jar lightly one or twice a day and open the jar to release the

gases formed.

 

At the end of the process, keep the pickles in the fridge.

 

Enjoy,
