Easy Refrigerator kosher style Dill Pickles

One thing that is American and near impossible to find in the UK is a good kosher style pickle. I originally found a similar recipe through The Homestead Survial Guide on Facebook. It is an American site and geared up for American measurements and ingredients. My version has been tweaked and modified ( with the help of my sister )for the making of these here in UK.

Delicious and Easy REFRIGERATOR KOSHER STYLE DILL PICKLES

3 1/2 cups water
1 1/4 cup white vinegar ( white malt vinegar fine to use)
2 Tablespoons rock salt
1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
6-8 baby cucumbers plus a half of a large cut up cucumber
2 cloves garlic
2 bunches of fresh dill.
1 Tablespoon black peppercorns and mustard seeds

Boil water and vinegar until sugar/ salt dissolved. Pour warm mixture over rest of ingredients placed in a large jar. Leave in refrigerator to pickle for 4 plus days and then they will be good in refrigerator for up to 6 weeks. Ours never lasts that long.

    WHAT?! This looks amazing!!!! *rushes off to turn printer on*

    I have resorted to putting slices of cucumber on my home made hamburgers then sprinkling dill over them. Sort of works...

    They are so easy to make and delicious. A quick refreshing snack. Can use the brine more than once too! Looks pretty when you make it!

    If you buy dill pickles from asda or tesco, you can make them "kosher" by adding some very lazy garlic,(@ 2 Tsp), and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper, been doing this for awhile and is too easy. The pickles over here are usually sweeter, but this works a treat
