Refrigerator pickles are easy to make and there are so many varieties to choose from. My kids and I make small batches and experiment with recipes. (As with everything we cook) Here is a simple recipe to get you started. Dill are the easiest to make in my opinion.
Ingredients
Thinly sliced cucumbers or pickling cukes or any way you like your pickles
Pickling/Canning salt - (1-2 tablespoons)
Apple Cider Vinegar/Water mix (Half and Half)
2-3 cloves of Garlic
Fresh Dill Sprigs
Slice or cut your cucumbers to your liking. (You can try to salt them and refrigerate for a couple of hours to get them crisper. Be sure to rinsed before adding to the brine)
In your container, place the dill at the bottom and add the cucumbers on top. Now add the canning salt and water vinegar mixture to ensure the salt is diluted. Add a few cloves of garlic and seal. No canning necessary. You will eat them before they expire. Amazingly simple and tasty.
