Quick dry cured pickles


Lithuanian Quick Pickles 






INGREDIENTS

1 Kilo pickling cucumbers
3 TBSP coarse salt
1 large or 2 small cloves garlic
1 small bunch of bill


INSTRUCTIONS


  • Wash pickling cucumbers, making sure to remove the blossom if still attached
  • coarsely shop dill and garlic
  • place washed pickling cucumbers into a plastic bag that is leak proof. ( I use a large freezer bag) 
  • toss garlic, dill and salt on top of pickling cucumbers. 
  • seal bag and toss around.  
  • let rest at room temperature for 3 hours
  • refrigerate for 3 days 
All Tossed into bag 


You can start eating them at any time during the 3 day curing process.  I have no idea how long they last as they always get eaten so quickly.
