POP'S DILL PICKLES



Pop's Dill Pickles image

Pop has been making these crunchy, best tasting pickles for years. I have been making for about 4 years, and recently started adding fresh garlic cloves to my canning jars. I know there are a lot of good pickle recipes out there, but this is one of the best tasting pickles ever. Some people eat their pickles about a week after, but I say wait, because the longer you wait the better they are.

Time 2h45m

Yield 35

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 pounds small pickling cucumbers
4 cups water
4 cups distilled white vinegar
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup pickling salt
3 tablespoons pickling spice, wrapped in cheesecloth
7 1-quart canning jars with lids and rings
7 heads fresh dill
7 cloves garlic

Steps:

  • Place cucumbers in a large pot and cover with ice cubes. Let them sit for at least 2 hours but no more than 8. Drain and pat dry.
  • Place the water, vinegar, sugar, pickling salt, and pickling spice into a saucepan. Bring to boil, then simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the cucumbers into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/2 inch of the top. Place 1 dill head and 1 clove of garlic into each jar. Pour the hot pickling liquid into the jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the rim. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes, or the time recommended by your county Extension agent.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). If any jars have not sealed properly, refrigerate them and eat within two weeks. Store in a cool, dark area, and wait at least 1 week before opening.

SMASHED PICKLE SALAD



Smashed Pickle Salad image

Many cucumber salads are dressed with some combination of salt, acidity (such as vinegar or lemon juice) and something tangy and creamy. (Sour cream is commonly used in Germany, Scandinavia and the Midwest; buttermilk in the South; and yogurt in the Mediterranean, Southwest Asia and South Asia.) This recipe skips the first step of salting by instead substituting pickles - cucumbers fermented in salt and vinegar - in place of raw cucumbers. They're still crunchy, but also pack a fierce punch. Eat this salad alongside something rich, like grilled meats or schnitzel, or in a sandwich with deli meats, tinned fish or boiled eggs. While most pickles work, half-sour pickles are especially refreshing. (Avoid bread and butter pickles, which are too sweet.) Smashing the pickles opens them up to absorb dressing, and the act of doing so is just plain fun.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
4 whole pickles (or 16 spears), plus 1 tablespoon brine
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped dill fronds and stems
1 tablespoon mayonnaise

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the red onion and pickle brine.
  • On your cutting board, whack the pickles with a meat mallet or the back of a wooden spoon, then rip into 1/2-inch pieces. (If using spears, simply rip them into 1/2-inch pieces.)
  • Add the smashed pickles to the bowl, along with the celery, sour cream, dill and mayonnaise. Stir vigorously until creamy and combined. This salad is best eaten right away. (It can be refrigerated up to one day, but the dressing will start to get watery.)

Tips:

  • Choose the right popcorn kernels. For the best results, use fresh, non-GMO popcorn kernels. Avoid using old or stale kernels, as they will not pop as well.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven. This will give the popcorn kernels plenty of room to pop.
  • Add oil and dill pickle juice to the pot. The oil will help the popcorn kernels pop, while the dill pickle juice will give them a tangy flavor.
  • Heat the pot over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the popcorn kernels and cover the pot.
  • Shake the pot occasionally. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Listen for the popping sounds to slow down. Once the popping sounds slow down to about 2-3 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat.
  • Pour the popcorn into a large bowl. Add your favorite toppings, such as butter, salt, or grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Enjoy your dill pickle popcorn! This fun and flavorful snack is perfect for parties, movie nights, or anytime you need a quick and easy snack.

Conclusion:

Dill pickle popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and unique popcorn that is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a fun and easy snack, give dill pickle popcorn a try. You won't be disappointed!
