  1. brine
  2. 3 tbspdistilled white vinegar
  3. 3 tbspapple cider vinegar
  4. distilled water (well recommend)

Cooking Instructions

3 hours
  1. 1

    Heat apple cider vinegar until just beginning to boil. While remaining on the heating element, turn off the heat and let sit until room temperature. *These instructions are very important as this will allow the cider vinegar to release tannins which moderate the fermentation of the cucumbers, allowing for a crisper pickle*

  2. 2

    Wash and slice pickles as desired and pack into jar tightly.

  3. 3

    Combine cider vinegar, white vinegar, pickling spice, then fill the jar with distilled water until brim full.

  4. 4

    Allow the cucumbers to ferment in a warm space for 12 hours, then flip the mason jar over and allow 12 more hours of fermentation. Once at desired tenderness immediately refrigerate to halt fermentation.
