Let there be pickles!
No that's not the crazy pregnancy hormones talking...at least not when I made this batch of quick pickles.
Early on this summer we had dinner with the Sox Family on their Patio.
That morning at Mini Sox's tee ball game I asked him what I should bring for dinner that night. His response (of course accompanied by a big smile) was pickles!
Now I could have taken the easy way out and bought a jar of those delicious, crisp, mouthwatering, briny pieces of heaven from Claussen...ok, ok, now that might be the pregnancy hormones talking now haha!
But instead I decided to make some pickles myself...
I sliced up some small cucumbers and cherry peppers, then packed them into a jar with lots of dill.
Over medium heat, I simmered some white vinegar, sugar, salt and water, then poured it over the contents of the packed jar.
I allowed the jar to sit in the sun for an hour or so, shaking from time to time.
As a predinner snack, these pickles were awesome!
Fresh, crisp, briny, slightly spicy, and quick.
