HOMEMADE DILL PICKLES
If you make a simple salt brine, add some spices, and submerge Kirby cucumbers in it for about a week, you get some fairly delicious pickles. I'm pretty sure if you measure your salt right and store the fermenting pickles at an appropriate temperature you'll get crunchy pickles.

Steps:
- Place water, salt, and garlic into a large saucepan. Add cloves, bay leaves, coriander seeds, and black peppercorns. Stir until salt is dissolved. Heat over low for just a few minutes to bring water to room temperature. The water should not be warm.
- Place some dill flowers in the bottom of a jar or crock large enough to hold the cucumbers, spices, and some brine. Place a few of the cucumbers on top of the dill weed. Alternate layers of dill flowers and cucumbers, ending with a layer of dill. Pour pickling brine into the crock. Gently tap or shake the crock to eliminate any air bubbles. Weigh down the pickles with a small ramekin to ensure they stay below the surface of the brining liquid. Top with more brine. Reserve any extra brine to add if necessary during the fermentation process. Cover crock.
- Place crock where it can ferment at a temperature between 65 and 75 degrees F. Let pickles ferment for a week, checking every day to ensure pickles remain submerged. Small bubbles may appear; this is a normal product of the fermentation process. Add more brine if necessary.
- After about 8 days, you can skim off the foam. Test a pickle for flavor and crunch. You can continue fermenting them for a couple more days or, if you like them at this point, transfer pickles to a large jar. Fill jar with the brine from the fermentation process. Cover and store finished pickles in the refrigerator.

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: For the best pickles, choose small, firm cucumbers that are free of blemishes. These cucumbers are easier to pack into the jars and will hold their shape better after they are pickled.
- Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your pickles the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Make sure the brine is completely cool before adding the cucumbers: If you add the cucumbers to the brine while it is still hot, they will become soft and mushy. Be sure to let the brine cool completely before adding the cucumbers.
- Keep the pickles in a cool, dark place: Once the pickles are made, store them in a cool, dark place. This will help them to keep their flavor and texture for longer.
