Things You'll Need:
- a dozen 3 to 4 inch long cucumbers
- 2 cups water
- 1 1/3 cups white vinegar
- 1 1/4 cups chopped dill weed
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 7 cloves chopped garlic
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 tbsp pickling spice
- 1 1/2 tsp dill seed
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
-
Step 1
To make refrigerator dill pickles:
In a large bowl combine cucumbers, water, chopped dill, sugar, garlic, pickling spice, salt, dill seed, and red pepper. Stir a bit and let stand for about three hours. You can leave them whole but I prefer to cut the cucumbers lengthwise into thirds, this lets the pickling juice saturate them better. -
Step 2
After 3 hours place the cucumbers in 3 1.5 pint large mouth canning jars, and cover with the liquid from the bowl.

Step 3
Seal the lids and refrigerate for about a week before eating. These delicious refrigerator pickles will last about a month in the fridge.
