Make the CRISPEST, CRUNCHIEST Canned Pickles EVER! (Use THIS Method)

[@arlenesee392]

When my grandma passed away and we were clearing out the basement she had a lot of canned fruit and pickles. In the back of the shelf was 4 quart jars of dill pickles that my mother gave her 12 years before. Yes 12 years!! They looked like they were just put there. Sooooo we opened one expecting them to be no good but surprisingly it smelled fine snd my husband dared me to taste one. I tolk out a pickle and it felt firm and smelled fine. I took a bite thinking I would spit it out at the first sign that anything was not right. It was crunchy and tasted like a normal dill pickle. All for jars were fine snd my family ate them all. A nice surprise that ment a lot!

Today marked two weeks since I made these pickles and I finally got to open a jar. I absolutely LOVED them! So did my parents while they were visiting so I sent a jar home with them. BUT! I made two batches last weekend using your recipe. All local fresh pickling cukes from our local farmers market. You and several others have said that the pickles can brine for up to a week. The first batch I made did brine for a week. The second batch was in brine for about 24 hours before draining, rinsing, and canning following your main recipe. The first batch was absolutely, positively, too salty. I call them "Beer Pickles" 'cos a person needs some cold beer to chase them. The second batch though was spot on! Great flavor! This was the first weekend that I ever made pickles so I was trying different methods. I'm sharing this not to slam you in any way, but to let other beginners like myself know that the longer the cukes brine, the saltier they will be. In hindsight I should have known better but again, this was my first time making pickles or canning. That all being said, I plan on using this recipe again and again, just making sure that I don't brine for more than 24 hours. Thank you for this great video!

[@tracyjohnson8057]

My Ma canned pickles when I was a kid. Dill, sweet and bread and butter. I had no use for the second two ah but her dill were the best I have ever had. She used 2 quart jars, she didn't cut the pickles down and when you opened the jar you first had to pull out an enormous amount of dill weed. The snap on those pickles. We would sneak down to the root cellar and grab a jar every time she went out with her friends. Eat it while watching tv. One of the best memories of my childhood.

I did these per your recipe, and wanted to comment how AMAZING These pickles came out, It was our first time doing pickles but have moderate experience canning, we had some homegrown but the majority came from a 20lb box from the local u-pick farm. Not even the freshest or prettiest cukes, still turned out delicious after sorting out the baddies, was afraid the steps would be too difficult on my not-so-reliable stove. Went for it anyway, With a decent thermometer that had a high and low buzzer, it ended up easier than I thought it would be. I just grabbed a chair and a book and posted up in front of the stove for the processing time. Now all my friends and family are begging me for pickles.Thanks 😊 can’t wait to do more next year as the 22 pints we did won’t last I’m sure!

[@FlorianSchatter]

I tried the recipe myself a few weeks ago and it’s very good. But first comes first: I don’t recommend to brine the cucumbers for up to 7 days! Mine started to ferment after 5 days and I had some clouds/foam on the surface - the one you know from fermenting. I guess it’s yeast or something. So better aim for 3-4 days brining. For the canning I added some coriander seeds, black pepper corns, juniper berries and cloves and cut the cucumbers into planks - our favorite for sandwiches. I tried them first after 3 days and wasn’t that exited - the pickles were just salty and not very fragrant. But after another 10 days the result is fantastic - perfectly crunchy and flavorful! We love them and we are going to produce more! Thank you for sharing this recipe and your knowledge. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

Hello, since I have put up thousands of pickles in my life, I watched your video with interest, never too old to learn something new. I always cut both ends on the cucumbers, didn't know about the enzyme. I do not brine them in salt water, but do wash and cool them down. I put the spices right in the brine and ladle them into jars. This makes for a flavorful brine. I always put fresh dill and horse radish leaves in, again, didn't know about the tannins. And lastly, I process them for 20 min exactly on the same temperature you mentioned. This is a must for firm crunchy pickles. I have had a batch that 'boiled' on me, I'd merkit boiled and used those in cooking( potato salad , egg salad etc) so thank you, great video and lots of good explanation of reason - why to do this and not that .

With fermented pickles, you have to soak them in ice cold water for at least 30 minutes. You put vinegar in there when they are fermented to your liking. Also, the type of cucumber is REALLY important. Small cucumbers with very little seeds. If you do it right, they don't discolor, and they are very crunchy.

For crisp okra, only use okra that is a few days old max, but preferably picked that day. Then freeze it right after picking it and put it in the jars frozen so that it cooks less with the canning method. Also use calcium chloride.

This came up randomly & wanted to say Very Cool video! Love the people who grow, farm, & home practice basic old style living. I try every way to Reduce Reuse Recycle Repair... gotta get a pickle now

I was looking for pickle recipes yesterday, I have cucumbers coming out of my ears this year 😵

[@Tay58382]

Cucumbers coming out your ears not sure a doctor can help with that one 😜

[@benf8706]

I love to watch your family on KZbin. I absolutely love dill pickles. I am so going to try your crispy pickle recipe.

[@marthasundquist5761]

I found a teabag provides more tannins for crunch...esp in ferrmented pickles...I like to use Chai roobios.

[@sharroon7574]

Rooibos isn't camellia tea though right?

[@marthasundquist5761]

@@sharroon7574 right, but you can stick regular Chai made with standard tea In. I had a regular tea bag and a roobios Chai in a gallon jug if fermented pickles. WA n Ted to try it, was goox.

Never been big on dill pickles but I love bread and butter pickles. 👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️👏👏👏🤗

Used to eat a lot of kosher pickles until dr told me to minimize close to none cause of my blood pressure. Only eat it once in a while. Makes my mouth watery watching the video. Very interesting.

[@kchelley]

Haven’t made pickles yet, but I know what recipe I will be trying when I get there. Thanks Carolyn!

[@thepickincoopfarmstead]

Thank you so much for sharing. I have not mastered pickles yet. I’m definitely going to try your method 😊

I'm struggling finding a recipe for fermenting and canning peppercini's. The tiny greek pepper is much used in my home. The plants are prolific and I would love to store some with a tried and true recipe. I love your channel and recipes.

[@Inkhed1]

You can make a brine and just let them sit out with cheese cloth over them. I use the pop lock jars for ferment because the seal will let air out once you close them after a day or two. Just close them when you see the fermentation start.

[@mwolkonsky]

@@Inkhed1 a ferment does not have the same shelf life that canning does. Thank you for considering the post and I do currently ferment the peppers. :D

[@brentgilbert4208]

I can’t tell you how much my wife and I enjoy your videos!!! Thanks so much for all you do!

[@elizabethtrieu1446]

Is there a way I could pickle without the use of sugar? Or at least another approved and similar result without/substituting the sugar? Thanks!

[@FebbieG]

I would like to know too.

[@02271953me]

I did this recipe today with my son and daughter in law. We bought 25# of pickling cukes, I'd say the largest were about 4" long and soaked them in your saltwater solution in the fridge for 72 hours. We added a grape leaf and fresh dill to our jars along w calcium chloride (pickle crisp), mustard seeds and garlic - they look beautiful!! We got 19 widemouth quarts of whole cucumbers - each jar looks fully packed and all sealed. We'll wait 2 months to test them but they sure look good!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@joelhenderson5404]

I use my mother's recipe it's called Oklahoma sunshine pickles. I have some that are a year or a little older and they are always crunchy. It's a simple and easy recipe.

[@sharmynbrass2858]

Would you like to share with a newbie?

[@Raynestorm1968]

Want to share? Or were you just bragging?

[@mzc.d.4039]

Great tip on using only pickling cucumbers as this was a question I had when faced with too many cuks in the garden. I will use them as refrigerator pickles instead. So tempted to buy a basket of these little dill cuks and make a batch.

[@rickleffel256]

A SousVide process would work even better that the electric pot you are using. It hold temp and times at the same time.

[@steveevans1841]

I have seen many youtube videos on canning, and I have learned to check their methods against the standards set by the National Center for Home Food Preservation. It appears that you do too, well done. I buy two jars of pickled cucumbers every week and they're lucky if they last a week. This summer, I am going to grow cucumbers and maybe try canning some. I am so glad to find your channel. And yes, I subscribed. Another great channel I watch is Rosewood Homestead. The next rainy day I will have a look at the rest of your channel to see what else I can learn.
