How To Pickle Anything

Here’s how to make homemade pickles.

Start by cutting a few cucumbers into spears, then crush a few cloves of garlic and add these to a jar along with some fresh dill, mustard seeds, and whole peppercorns.

To make the brining liquid, combine 2 cups water, a splash of apple cider vinegar, a quarter cup salt, and two tablespoons of sugar.

Then bring this to a boil, and once everything’s dissolved, pour the hot brine into your pickle jar.

Let this sit with the lid off for 10 minutes, then cool this down using an ice bath, and then place on the lid and refrigerate until you’re ready to eat them.
