Here is a new way to put that crockpot to use! These pickles aren't cooked, but the crock is perfect for brining small batches of pickles. These pickles are crunchy and full of garlic flavor.. reminds me of the ones they give you with your sandwich at the deli. These pickles are super easy to make and last for up to 6 months in the fridge. Note: In trying to submit this recipe, it changed the names of a couple of my ingredients. Instant minced garlic is the dried minced garlic sold in the spice section. And, pickles, crisp is a product called pickle Crisp sold in the canning section. Also, its not mineral water, it's spring water sold in jugs. Hope you all enjoy! Ingredients:
2 lbs pickling cucumbers |
1 cup fresh dill (or 12 dill heads) |
12 garlic cloves, peeled and halved |
3 tablespoons instant minced garlic |
1 teaspoon peppercorn |
1 teaspoon dried dill |
1 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes |
1/2 cup white vinegar |
1/2 cup canning salt |
1 teaspoon pickle, crisp |
1 1/2 quarts mineral water |

1. Rinse and dry cucumbers.
2. Slice ends off, then half lengthwise.
3. Combine all ingredients except cucumbers in crockpot.
4. Stir to dissolve salt.

7. DO NOT TURN ON THE CROCKPOT!
8. Allow to sit for six days.
