Answer 1

No Fail Sour Pickles
Do not attempt to change the salt to water ratio in this recipe as the brine will not be successful.

1 c. Kosher salt to 1 gallon of water
Several sprigs of fresh dill
3 or 4 cloves garlic, cut in half
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp. pickling spice
2 or 3 whole allspice

Wash and dry sufficient small cucumbers of the pickling variety to fill a gallon size jar. Add the herbs and spices to the top. Mix up the salt water mixture well and pour it over the cucumbers, covering them totally. Cover the jar. Let the jar stand 5 days to a week at room temperature. As they start to pickle, gases will form in the jar and the mixture will bubble over unless you open the jar daily and release these gases. The pickles will be 1/2 sour at this point and can be refrigerated. They will continue to get sour in the refrigerator and will keep well for about 2 months or more depending upon the firmness of the variety of pickling cucumbers that you have used.
