Pickle making adventures!
Our garden has been producing tons of cucumbers this year! I've been pickling all the things!
At first I just used premixed packets for my pickling. I made sweet relish & kosher dills that way.
Then I found this recipe for refrigerator pickles. At the time, I had enough cucumbers for just 2 jars, so I decided to try it out. I modified the recipe just a little by adding garlic salt along with fresh garlic. I also added dried dill along with the fresh dill. I wanted super flavorful pickles!
The pickles did their thing in the refrigerator for almost a week before I cracked them open. They were absolutely fantastic & so full of flavor!
I loved them so much that I made another batch this morning! I canned these pickles, so we'll see if they have the same goodness as the refrigerator ones!
I'm not a huge fan of canning, but I've been doing it in small batches this year, which makes it more enjoyable. This morning, I only canned 4 small jars of pickles. It still took quite a while, but it wasn't absolutely overwhelming.
I really liked making pickles this season. I loved mixing different spices together to create something delicious!
