Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick Refrigerator Pickles.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a large bowl and tossing in your freshly sliced cucumbers along with a sprinkle of salt.
Step 2
Let this delightful mixture sit for about an hour—this step is crucial as it helps draw out excess moisture from the cucumbers, enhancing their crunchiness.
Step 3
After the hour has passed, it’s time to elevate those flavors! Add in some white sugar for a touch of sweetness, diced red onion for a bit of zing, chopped green bell pepper for color and crunch, a splash of cider vinegar for that tangy kick, and a sprinkle of celery seed for a hint of earthiness.
Step 4
Give everything a good stir, ensuring all the ingredients are well combined and coated.
Step 5
Now, cover your bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and pop it into the refrigerator.
Step 6
For the best flavor experience, let your pickles chill for at least 24 hours before serving.
Step 7
This waiting period allows all those wonderful flavors to meld together beautifully, creating a refreshing treat that’s perfect for any occasion.
Step 8
Enjoy your homemade pickles!.
