PMS Pickles
I made these with some leftover pickle brine I had. I had lots of motherwort herb from the garden and no dill, so I decided to make PMS pickles. Motherwort can help with pms, peri, postpartum, and other "ladies" issues, and can also ease anxiety in both women and men. No guarantees that these pickles will ease your ills, but they're tasty and comforting. The brine cuts the bitterness of the herb. Use just one leaf if you want less of the herb taste.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine sliced cucumber and chopped pepper or garlic in a small bowl.
- 2
Chop or crumble the motherwort leaves and add them to the bowl. Mix well.
- 3
Pack the cucumber mixture into 1 clean pint jar or two 1/2 pint jars.
- 4
Combine the water, vinegar, salt and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Heat on low until the salt and sugar dissolve.
- 5
Remove the brine from the heat. Taste and adjust the salt and sugar if necessary.
- 6
Pour the warm brine over the cucumber mixture and cover the jars with 2-part lids.
- 7
Allow the pickles to sit at room temperature for a few hours or overnight, then move to the refrigerator.
- 8
These pickles will keep in the refrigerator for months, but will lose their crispness after a month or two.
- 9
When the pickles are gone, add more veggie to the brine, or mix it with olive oil for a mood-boosting salad dressing.

I've always like 24 Hour/Overnight Pickles and they are inexpensive to make. In the winter fresh dill maybe hard to find, so I used dried dill. They will normally stay fresh in your refrigerator for a couple of weeks.

Dilly-Dilly Dill Pickles Dilly-Dilly Dill Pickles
I use dill pickles in so many recipes, but what I don’t tell you is that they are MY dill pickles. The difference between these pickles and ones from the store is the vinegar. I use apple cider vinegar and it creates an amazing taste with the dill.
