Ingredients
- 4-5 pickling cucumbers approximately .75 pounds
- 3 cups water
- 3/4 cups distilled white vinegar
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon whole mustard seed
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 2 habanero peppers stem removed, cut into fourths (remove seeds for less heat)
- 2 garlic cloves peeled
- 2 teaspoons whole white peppercorn
Instructions
- In a medium sauce pot, combine water through Kosher salt. Bring to a low simmer, stirring until all ingredients (except mustard seed) are dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- In the bottom of two 16 ounce mason jars, place habanero, garlic and peppercorns, dividing evenly.
- Cut cucumbers according to preference, either sliced with a mandolin slicer or into spears. Divide evenly in mason jars.
- When cooled, divide liquid into jars. You might have more than you need, that is fine, just discard it.
- Screw on tops and place in refrigerator.
- The amount of time it will take for them to "pickle" depends a lot on the size of your pickle. Mine were rather thin and cut into 1/2 inch disks, which took 10 days. Thick pickles could take closer to one month.
