Quick Refrigerator Pickles Recipes

EASY REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Steps:

• Place cucumbers and onions in a large bowl; set aside. Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook and stir just until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over cucumber mixture; cool. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.

QUICK & EASY REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, salt and sugar in a small non-reactive saucepan (such as stainless steel, glass, ceramic or teflon) over high heat. Whisk until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Transfer the liquid into a bowl and whisk in the cold water. Refrigerate brine until ready to use.
• Stuff the cucumbers into two clean 1-quart jars. Add the coriander seeds, garlic cloves, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes, dill sprigs, and chilled brine into jars, dividing evenly. If necessary, add a bit of cold water to the jars until the brine covers the cucumbers. Cover and refrigerate about 24 hours, then serve. The pickles will keep in the refrigerator for up to one month.

QUICK REFRIGERATOR DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Cut a thin sliver off of the flower end of each cucumber.
• Leave the cucumbers whole if they are small, or cut lengthwise into spears if big.
• Bring the water, vinegar, salt, and sugar or honey to a boil. Stir once or twice to dissolve the salt and sugar. Let cool to room temperature or place the brine into the refrigerator to speed up the process.
• Place the garlic cloves and one of the grape leaves, if using, into the bottom of a clean glass quart jar (or split garlic and leaves into two pint-sized jars).
• Pack the cucumbers vertically into the jar(s), adding the remaining spices and herbs as you do so. Be sure to pack the cucumbers in tightly so that they will not float up out of the brine.
• Pour the cooled brine over cucumbers, being sure to completely cover with liquid.
• Secure the lid and place jar(s) in the refrigerator. The pickles will be ready to eat in 4 days.

QUICK REFRIGERATOR DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• Clean the cucumbers well and then snip off the ends. Then cut into either spears or thin rounds. Stuff the cucumbers into two clean 1-quart glass jars. Divide the garlic, dill, bay leaves, coriander, peppercorns, mustard seeds and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) between both jars and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, combine the water, salt and sugar. Set over moderate heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Remove from heat and cool down to room temperature.
• Once cooled, pour the mixture between both jars up to the very top. Seal tightly and place in the fridge for at least 1 week or up to 1 month.
