Pickle pickle!

Filed under: — laura @ 7:52 pm

I’ve discussed my poor recording habits before. This time, I made some refrigerator pickles that came out wonderfully…and of course I didn’t write anything down. I think I based it on this recipe, but I’m not certain.

Before the vague memories (and the pickles!) vanish, here’s what I’ve got:

Spicy Refrigerator Pickles

  • Some cucumbers, washed and cut into spears
  • A candy onion or two, frenched
  • A few cloves of garlic, peeled
  • Whole brown mustard seed
  • Dried dill weed
  • White vinegar
  • Cayenne pepper (a fair amount)
  • Sugar
  • Sea salt
  • Water

Dissolve sugar and salt in liquids. Put everything else in a clean plastic or glass container and pour the liquid over. Close tightly and refrigerate at least 3 days before eating.

Dear self: You have two degrees from a respectable English department. Learn to write things down!
