  • 1 Tblsp kosher salt
  • 10 oz tap water

Sprinkle the top with sugar and kosher salt.

In a small sauce pan boil 10 oz of water and 5 oz of vinegar.

Once boiled, pour over pickles in the jar and cover with a lid. Because these are refrigerator pickles they don’t have to be canning jars with canning lids. Just make sure that they are snug tight and won’t leak.

Let set at room temperature for 24 hours and then put in the refrigerator.

After 7 days turn the jars upside down for another 7 days before they are ready to enjoy!

This recipe is one of my favorites for a summer lunch with friends. It is super easy to make ahead of time and the kitchen stays cool. Also, these pickles are crunchy, garlicky and are everything that you dream of in a pickle! The best part is that they are super easy and go great on any sandwich, hamburger or hot dog and compliment any of the labor day classics!

Hi Jessica! We turn the jar upside down because all the garlic and seasonings concentrate at the bottom. So, by turning them upside down halfway through the pickling, you get a better distribution of the garlicky-dill flavor!

Why are we turning the jar upside down?
