REFRIGERATOR SWEET PICKLES

Steps:

• Place dill, garlic, and onion in a large mason jar. Fill jar to top with cucumbers.
• Meanwhile, place the water, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in small saucepan over high heat. Whisk until the mixture comes to a boil and sugar has dissolved. Pour hot liquid over cucumbers. Cool slightly, then place top on jar and refrigerate overnight. Shake occasionally.

SWEET REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Steps:

• Thinly slice the pickles, using a mandolin, knife, or any other tool you'd like.
• Add the ingredients to a large container and stir it up a little.
• That's it. You're done. Seriously. You'll be tempted to add more liquid to them, but it's not necessary-they make their own. Just stir them up a few times in the next few hours.

MOM'S REFRIGERATOR SWEET PICKLES

Steps:

• Combine cucumbers, onions, bell pepper, and pickling salt in large heat-proof bowl, preferably one with a lid. Stir and let sit on the counter for 1 hour. Drain. (If you don't own a mandoline, I highly recommend this one. It works so great for creating thin, even slices. Use it for the cucumbers, onions, and bell pepper in this recipe.)
• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the sugar, vinegar, and celery seed. Stir occasionally. When the sugar has completely melted, pour the hot mixture over the cucumbers. Add the dill. Let cool to room temperature. Place a lid on the bowl and refrigerate for 2 days before eating. Eat straight from the bowl, or transfer to jars if desired. You could also transfer the room temperature mixture to jars before refrigerating for 2 days. Pickles keep very well for a few weeks.
