Overnight Refrigerator Dills
Bohemian Dills from my Mom In-Law
Our cucumbers have been growing crazy...blowing up overnight...so we have been picking everyday...and now have enough for a gallon of Overnight Dills.
Beauty of these is they are crisp like Deli-pickles...yes, the $8 a jar ones...and you don't have to can them.

Add a 4" layer of slices (try to keep them the same thickness)
sprinkle with one green onion head and some of the chopped leaves,
2 cloves of garlic quartered
1-3 large flower of dill and some small dill branches, soft stems are okay.
 |

Repeat layers until the Jar is full almost to the top,
cucumbers, onions, garlic and dill.
 |

Keep the jar loosely packed...
Prepare your brine:
1 1/2 cup of white vinegar
2 1/2 cups of water
2 TBSP of canning salt
1 TBSP of Sugar
 |

Bring brine to a boil.
Ladle boiling brine over the Cucumbers
within an inch of the top.
Push a spoon down the inside of the jar and move the cucumbers around to release bubbles, or shake the jar. Add more brine to fill, and screw on lid.

Wrap the jar tightly with 3-4 towels, and leave overnight>
You could do these in a stoneware crock like the old days. I have a small crock with a metal push down on the lid...which I have used for a smaller batch.
Perfect Garden Food for summer!
Thanks Mom, and Hubby is so glad you gave me the recipe!

DeleteSandi, those look and sound wonderful. My grandmother used to make pickles and everytime she sat down with a piece of crusty french bread and butter and the pickles, I remember hearing the snap when she bit into one. Good memories..Stay well..xxoJudy
ReplyDeleteAh, that's what these are---super crunchy! Hugs, Sandi
DeleteThese look so good, Sandi! I had no idea you could make pickles overnight like this I always thought they had to be canned so this is super cool. I'm definitely going to send this along to my family. We eat a lot of pickles so this post is fantastic! Thanks so much and happy summer, CoCo
ReplyDeleteLong as you keep them in the fridge...We still have some from last year...LOL, only because the kids haven't been here this year...sigh! Thanks, Sandi
DeleteMy mouth is literally watering over your pictures! I love a good pickle - sour pickles are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThese are really the best, and so EASY...! So if you are hungry for those Deli pickles from the city---these are like that! Enjoy, Sandi and thanks for visiting!

ReplyDeleteOh my! You're making my mouth water. I always like dill pickles best or bread and butter pickles...well BOTH actually! And thanks for the comment you just left me. You said it SO well! It's exactly what people need to hear. I hope everyone reads my comments. I wrote the Native plant society to let them know I had done a post about them and I mentioned they would want to read the comments too. I'm glad I remembered to say that! Hugs! Enjoy your day!
