- 3/4 cup vinegar + 2 tbsp
- 3 cloves garlic peeled and lightly crushed
- 4 tbsp cane sugar rounded
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 cucumber hot house
- 1 1/2 tsp whole peppercorns
- 1/2 tsp whole mustard seed
- 1/4 cup fresh dill loosely packed
In a small pot combine vinegar, garlic, sugar and salt. Bring to just under a simmer.
Meanwhile cut the cucumber in half and then into spears.
In a 32oz wide mouth mason jar (or other heat proof 32 oz jar with lid) put the peppercorns, mustard seed, and dill. Stuff cucumbers in on top of the other ingredients.
After the vinegar is just under a simmer and the sugar/salt have dissolved, pour directly into the mason jar. Fill the remainder of the jar with cool water till cucumbers are just covered.
Allow to cool uncovered. Cover and refrigerate or serve.
