π Recipe adapted from RecipeNLG-Full
Bring water to boil and dissolve salt in it.
Let water cool. In bottom of large wide mouth 5 gallon crock, jar or jug, place dill, spices and garlic.
(A 1 gallon jar will hold about 15 pickles.)
Pack cucumbers into scalded container and pour brine over them.
Place a plate over the jar to keep pickles from floating.
Stored at about 85Β°, pickles will be at the new stage in about 1 week, at half sour to sour stage in about 2 weeks to 20 days.
At colder temps, curing will take longer.
These are like the old fashioned "General Store" barrel pickles.
