CAROLYN'S KOOL-AID® PICKLES
The kids I babysit for love these -- red Kool Aid gives ordinary pickles a bright red color and adds fruity sweetness to their normal tang. I'm told they originated in the Southern US. I've also heard they are bar snacks, which may explain a lot. They are pretty, but I have to admit that I don't care for them very much.

Steps:
- Soak cucumbers for 30 minutes in a bowl filled with ice water to loosen any dirt. Slice the blossom end off each cucumber, which is opposite the stem end. If you aren't sure which end is which, slice a little off each. Cut cucumbers into spears or chunks, if desired.
- Pack cucumbers into one or two clean quart jars. Tuck in garlic, dill, coriander and jalapeño, if using.
- Add salt to two cups boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Add two cups of ice (made with filtered water if yours is chlorinated). Stir well until the ice has melted and the brine is cool. Pour brine into jars, covering cucumbers.
- Loosely cap jars and place in a bowl or pan because the jars may leak during fermentation.
- Leave pickles on the counter to ferment. The brine will bubble lazily and become cloudy. Taste after 3 days, leaving on the counter another day or two if you want your pickles more sour, or refrigerating if they're ready. They keep a month in the refrigerator.

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: Use fresh, firm, and unwaxed cucumbers for the best results.
- Prepare the cucumbers properly: Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and cut them into uniform pieces. You can use a variety of cuts, such as spears, slices, or chunks.
- Make the brine: The brine is what gives the pickles their flavor. Be sure to use the right proportions of vinegar, water, and sugar. You can also add other spices and flavorings, such as garlic, dill, and mustard seeds.
- Bring the brine to a boil: This will help to dissolve the sugar and spices and create a more flavorful brine.
- Pour the brine over the cucumbers: Make sure that the cucumbers are completely covered by the brine. You can use a weight to keep them submerged.
- Let the pickles cure: The pickles need to cure for at least 2 weeks before they are ready to eat. During this time, they will absorb the flavors of the brine and develop a sour taste.
- Store the pickles properly: Once the pickles are cured, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
