Fast & Easy Pickles

Written By Anne-Marie Schofer

I love making homemade pickles, and I love that I can have them fast and easy.  I believe I got this recipe from Rachael Ray... not entirely sure.  It's been a long time.  

Ingredients:

  • 1/2c white vinegar

  • 1t mustard seed

  • 1t salt

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1t dried dill

  • 1 bay leaf

  • 4 cucumbers, sliced

Over medium-high heat, heat vinegar, salt, mustard seed and garlic until it comes to a simmer. Toss dill, bay leaf and sliced cucumbers together in a heat proof bowl.  Pour simmering liquid over cucumbers and stir evenly to coat.

Serve at room temperature, or chilled.  Can eat right away, but the pickling effect is best after a few days in the refrigerator.
