MONA'S EASY REFRIGERATOR PICKLES
I got this recipe from an old family friend. She used to make us these pickles when we were kids. It is a really simple recipe, and the hardest part is not eating the pickles before they are ready. You can add pimentos, sliced bell peppers, or whole garlic cloves to the vinegar solution as alternative options.

KITTENCAL'S EASY REFRIGERATOR KOSHER GARLIC-DILL PICKLES
I make these every year when my pickling cucumbers are ready in my garden, they are really great pickles and so easy to make, add in more garlic and adjust the dill if desired --- these pickles develop in flavor with refrigeration time so allow them to chill at least 7 days or even longer before using, the longer the better, the pickles will keep for months in the refrigerator, use only kosher salt for this not table salt, and make certain to wash the outsides of the cucumbers thoroughly, see note on bottom --- for soaking the pickles in firstly to remove bacteria see my recipe#300387

- Clean the glass jar and lid thoroughly in your dishwasher or with hot soapy water.
- Combine the water, salt and vinegar in a saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Remove from heat; cool to room temperature.
- Pack the cucumbers and the remaining ingredients in a 2-quart (2 litre) glass jar, and pour brine (water/vinegar mixture) over them, covering the cucumbers completely.
- Store, covered in the the refrigerator.
- The pickles will be ready in 7 days, but the longer you leave them in the refrigerator the better they will be and will keep refrigerated for months (if they last that long!).
- **NOTE** since the peel is eaten on these pickles, make certain to wash and scrub the outside of the cucumbers well to remove any dirt, I use a small nail brush to scrub the outsides.

Steps:
- Combine sugar , salt , vinegar , turmeric and mustard seed.
- Add thinly sliced onions and cucumbers. Mix thoroughly.
- Refrigerate.
- I've eaten on these the same day they are made , but they're supposed to sit in the fridge for a few days first :) I hope you enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: Pickling cucumbers are the best choice for making refrigerator pickles, as they are small, firm, and have a thin skin. English cucumbers can also be used, but they may be less flavorful.
- Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your pickles the best flavor. Some good options include dill, garlic, mustard seeds, and red pepper flakes.
- Make sure the brine is strong enough: The brine is what gives pickles their sour flavor. Make sure to use enough salt and vinegar in your brine, or the pickles will not be properly preserved.
- Let the pickles ferment for at least 24 hours: The fermentation process is what gives pickles their characteristic sour flavor. Let the pickles ferment for at least 24 hours, or up to 2 weeks, before eating them.
- Store the pickles properly: Once the pickles are fermented, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months. Be sure to keep them in a clean, airtight container.
Conclusion:
Refrigerator pickles are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or condiment. They are perfect for summer picnics and potlucks, and they also make a great gift. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own refrigerator pickles at home. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack or condiment, give refrigerator pickles a try. You won't be disappointed!
