    List of Ingredients




    2 lbs. pickling cucumbers, sliced
    1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    6 small dried red chile peppers
    4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
    1 large sweet onion, sliced
    3 cups white vinegar (5% acidity)
    1 cup water
    1/3 cup sugar
    2 Tbsp canning-and-pickling salt
    1 Tbsp pickling spices

    Recipe



    Place first 5 ingredients in a large plastic bowl (do not use glass).


    Combine vinegar, 1 cup water, and next 3 ingredients in a 4-cup glass measuring cup. Microwave at HIGH 3 minutes; remove from microwave, and stir until sugar dissolves. Pour hot mixture evenly over cucumber mixture. Cover and chill 48 hours.


    Spoon evenly into quart canning jars or freezer containers, leaving 1/2-inch of room at the top; seal, label, and freeze pickles 8 hours or up to 6 months. Thaw in refrigerator before serving; use thawed pickles within 1 week.

    Makes 3 quarts.
