Deli Style Dill Pickles
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
1/2 bushel small pickling cucumbers
1/2 bunch dill
3 gallons water
2 cups pickling salt
5 garlic cloves, sliced
3/4 cup mixed pickling spices
Recipe
Wash cucumbers. Remove blossom ends carefully to
remove soil. Place cucumbers in large crocks. Distribute
the dill heads evenly. Make a brine of the remaining items
and add to the cucumbers. Cover with a heavy plate and
weight down with a glass jar filled with water.
Store at moderate room temperature (70 to 75 degrees
Fahrenheit). If scum forms, remove it daily. Pickles may
be eaten after third day but well done pickles need a 1-week
fermentation. After 1 week, pack the pickles into clean
jars and refrigerate to halt fermentation. These pickles
must be kept in the refrigerator.
