Steps:

- 2. Add the garlic and peppercorns to the container. NOTE - it's not traditional, but some like to add a teaspoon of picking spices, or a sprig of fresh dill.
- 3. Mix the water and salt and stir until dissolved.
- 4. Pour over the cucumbers. If they are not covered make more salt water with the same proportion of salt to water.
- 5. Weigh down the cucumbers so they are not floating. If exposed to air they will rot.
- 6. Partially cover and let sit on the counter for 3 days. You'll see little bubbles starting to form. This means they are fermented and ready. Chill and enjoy!
