Dill Pickles

Dill Pickles image

9-10 quart jars for canning
1 peck very fresh cucumbers, not too large
30 cloves of garlic
fresh dill, enough to yield 30 flowers
pickling spices
coarse salt

In bottom of each jar (I run mine through dishwasher), put a clove garlic and a dill flower. Fit in tightly one upright row of cucumbers. Add a garlic and dill. Fill jar with cukes. Add a garlic and dill plus a scant teaspoon mixed pickling spices and a heaping tablespoon coarse salt. Fill jars with cold water from the tap. Close but not tightly. Allow to stand out overnight. Adjust water if necessary, seal tightly and store in a cool place. New dills will be ready to eat in about 8 to 10 days. For well done, wait 3 weeks.

Yes, they will keep-unless you eat them all!
