Super Easy Refrigerator Dill Pickles
Super Easy Refrigerator Dill Pickles are made by soaking cucumber spears in a cooled brine of white vinegar, water, kosher salt, and sugar, infused with fresh dill, garlic, chili flakes, coriander, and mustard seeds. The quick refrigerator method allows pickles to develop crisp, tangy flavors without canning, ready to enjoy after just 24 hours chilled.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup white vinegar distilled
- 1 ¼ cups water
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 4 cloves garlic peeled
- ⅛ teaspoon red chili flakes
- 12 dill sprigs, fresh
- 1 tablespoon coriander seeds (optional)
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds (optional)
- 1 pound cucumber about 5 pickles), cut into spears, Kirby, mini or Persian varieties
Instructions
- Heat the vinegar, water, salt and sugar together in a medium saucepan, stirring occasionally, until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and cool.
- Divide the garlic, chili flakes, dill, coriander seeds and mustard seeds between two standard (1 ½ cup) mason jars. Place the cucumber spears in the jars, packing them in to fit. Pour the brine mixture into the jars. Add water as needed to cover the cucumbers with liquid. Close the jars and refrigerate for 24 hours before serving.
- Store pickles in a sealed jar in the fridge.
