Steps:
- Combine the salt and water in a pitcher and stir until the salt has dissolved.
- Rinse the cucumbers thoroughly and snip off the blossom end stem. Set aside.
- Place the peppercorns, pepper flakes, garlic, dill seed and fresh dill into a 1-gallon crock. Add the cucumbers to the crock on top of the aromatics. Pour the brine mixture over the cucumbers in order to completely cover. Pour the remaining water into a 1-gallon ziptop plastic bag and seal. Place the bag on top of the pickles making sure that all of them are completely submerged in the brine. Set in a cool, dry place.
- Check the crock after 3 days. Fermentation has begun if you see bubbles rising to the top of the crock. After this, check the crock daily and skim off any scum that forms. If scum forms on the plastic bag, rinse it off and return to the top of the crock.
- The fermentation is complete when the pickles taste sour and the bubbles have stopped rising; this should take approximately 6 to 7 days. Once this happens, cover the crock loosely and place in the refrigerator for 3 days, skimming daily or as needed. Store for up to 2 months in the refrigerator, skimming as needed. If the pickles should become soft or begin to take on an off odor, this is a sign of spoilage and they should be discarded.
HOMEMADE DILL PICKLES
If you make a simple salt brine, add some spices, and submerge Kirby cucumbers in it for about a week, you get some fairly delicious pickles. I'm pretty sure if you measure your salt right and store the fermenting pickles at an appropriate temperature you'll get crunchy pickles.

Steps:
- Place water, salt, and garlic into a large saucepan. Add cloves, bay leaves, coriander seeds, and black peppercorns. Stir until salt is dissolved. Heat over low for just a few minutes to bring water to room temperature. The water should not be warm.
- Place some dill flowers in the bottom of a jar or crock large enough to hold the cucumbers, spices, and some brine. Place a few of the cucumbers on top of the dill weed. Alternate layers of dill flowers and cucumbers, ending with a layer of dill. Pour pickling brine into the crock. Gently tap or shake the crock to eliminate any air bubbles. Weigh down the pickles with a small ramekin to ensure they stay below the surface of the brining liquid. Top with more brine. Reserve any extra brine to add if necessary during the fermentation process. Cover crock.
- Place crock where it can ferment at a temperature between 65 and 75 degrees F. Let pickles ferment for a week, checking every day to ensure pickles remain submerged. Small bubbles may appear; this is a normal product of the fermentation process. Add more brine if necessary.
- After about 8 days, you can skim off the foam. Test a pickle for flavor and crunch. You can continue fermenting them for a couple more days or, if you like them at this point, transfer pickles to a large jar. Fill jar with the brine from the fermentation process. Cover and store finished pickles in the refrigerator.

REFRIGERATOR DILL PICKLES
These pickles taste so fresh and have just the right amount of dill and garlic. They taste great along-side a hotdog on a bun. They also taste great alone as a healthy snack. The pickles should be good for 6 weeks. Enjoy! You can also cut cucumbers into chips if you prefer a pickle chip instead of a spear.

DILL PICKLES, COLD PROCESS
Steps:
- Directions 1.Clean cucumbers well but don't scrub so hard to damage their skin. Set aside 2.Clean jars in a dishwasher. These will not be heat processed so official "canning" jars are not needed but jars should be immaculately clean. 3.Mix together pickling spice and dill seed in a small bowl. Set aside. 4.Prepare brine by mixing together water, vinegar and salt in a large bowl. Mix very well with a whisk until all traces of salt are completely dissolved. Set aside. 5.Fill clean jars with cucumbers. You can insert them whole, in half, spears or slices. If using smaller pieces (like slices) that stack well, layer the cucumbers, 1.5 Tssp mixed spices and 1 or 2 garlic cloves in the jar. If doing whole pickles or spears, you can fill the jar with cucumbers first and then add the 1.5 Tbsp spices and garlic later, shaking to fill in gaps. 6.Once jars are filled, top cucumbers with brine. Tap on the counter or insert a clean butter knife and press against the cucumbers as needed to remove air bubbles. Be sure to completely cover the cucumbers with brine. Save any extra brine in clear jars for your next pickling session. 7.Leave the pickle jars on the counter at room temperature for 4-5 days. Cover the openings lightly with the lid (don't screw down all the way) or with cheese cloth to keep bugs and dust out. Start tasting the pickles on day 4 and once they reach the desired level of pickly-ness, tightern the lids all the way and store in the refrigerator. Pickles prepared this way can keep for 2-3 months. Be sure any pickles remaining in the jar as you eat through them are covered with pickling solution.
OLD-FASHIONED GARLIC DILL PICKLES
When I was raising my big family, I'd make dill pickles toward the end of the growing season for winter's keeping. Crushed red pepper flakes gives them a bit of bite.- Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

KITTENCAL'S DILL PICKLES AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING
For 22 pounds of pickling cucumbers you will need 20 (1-quart) glass processing jars with lids, although you might only use 18 jars, the complete recipe may be reduced by half if desired, do not use very large pickling cucumbers, allow at least 3 weeks before opening the jars---we like things very spicy at my house so I also add in one small jalapeno pepper or a small teaspoonful of dried chili flakes into each jar but that is only optional, if you like spicy then you might want to give that a try in a few jars only--- you will need a lot of garlic for this recipe as you are using 4-5 cloves per jar, so purchase lots of garlic, peeling the garlic cloves takes some time so you might want to start days in advance you can store the peeled cloves in glass bowls covered tightly with plastic wrap in the refrigerator they will stay well for up to 3 days, use *only* a good-quality vinegar for this as it will make a difference to the taste of you pickles--- *enjoy* and happy canning! :)

Steps:
- Before you start this make certain to have 20 (1-quart) sterilized glass canning jars with lids.
- I sterilize my jars and lids in my dishwasher, remove carefully and do not touch the inside of the jars after washing.
- Place the sterilized jars on the counter to cool slightly and cover with a very clean tea towel while continuing with the recipe.
- Wash and scrub the cucumbers well under cold water.
- Using a fork or tongs divide and drop the pickles between all the jars but do not over stuff the jars as the pickles need room to absorb the brine properly.
- For the brine: in a large (very clean) stock pot combine the brine ingredients; bring to full a boil and simmer stirring for about 1-2 minutes or until no salt granules remain; turn off the heat then cover with a lid and continue with the next step but do not let the water cool the water must be hot when poouring into the jars.
- To each jar add in 1-2 springs fresh dill, 3 whole cloves garlic and 4-5 black peppercorns.
- Ladle the HOT brine into each jar up to 1/2-inch from the top.
- Immediately place the lids on but DO NOT tighten completely.
- TO PROCESS: place the filled jars in the large pot or canner with a wire rack on the bottom (make certain the the jars are NOT touching each other!).
- Pour in very hot water to about 1-inch over the jars; bring to aboil and process for 20 minutes at full boil (use a timer for this).
- Remove the jars; set aside.
- As they cool you should hear the lids popping and they should have a small "dip" in the middle.
- The lids may NOW be tightened securely.
- Store in a cool dry place.
- Allow at least 2 weeks before opening.
