Ingredients
- 6 pieces Small cucumbers
- 1 cup White vinegar
- 1 cup Water
- 4 sprigs Fresh dill sprigs
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice off the ends. You can choose to keep them whole or slice them into spears or rounds, depending on your preference.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, and salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the salt dissolves. Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a clean, sterile 1-quart jar, add the dill sprigs, garlic cloves (smashed), black peppercorns, mustard seeds, and red pepper flakes.
Step 4
Pack the cucumbers tightly into the jar with the spices, ensuring that they are covered by the brine.
Step 5
Pour the warm water-vinegar mixture over the cucumbers, leaving about half an inch of headspace at the top of the jar.
Step 6
Seal the jar with a lid, shake gently to distribute the spices, and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 7
Refrigerate the pickles for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to develop. For best results, allow them to sit for 3 days.
Step 8
Serve the dill pickles cold as a keto-friendly snack or as a flavor-packed addition to meals.
