Simple Refrigerator Dill Pickles Recipe

Simple Refrigerator Dill Pickles

I LOVE some homemade pickles. Crisp, tangy, and delicious, I can down a jar all by myself in no time flat.

But with a hot and humid summer like this, who has extra time to hang out over the stove? Not me. That’s why I love this simple refrigerator Dill Pickles Recipe.

Did I mention it’s simple?!

Ingredients

4 cups cucumber spears {you can slice pickling cucumbers if you’d prefer that over spears!}
3 1/2 cups water
1 1/4 cups white vinegar
3 garlic cloves, whole
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 heads of fresh dill

Directions

Combine the water, vinegar, sugar, and salt in a saucepan, and bring to a boil, stirring well.  Once the mixture boils, remove from heat and let cool completely.

Place cucumbers, garlic, and dill in a large glass or plastic container. Pour the cooled vinegar mixture over the cucumber mixture. Cover and chill in the fridge for 3-4 days.  You can then transfer them to jars if you prefer, or just keep them in the bowl.

See what I mean? Simple Refrigerator Dill Pickles – Easy peasy!
