This pickling liquid is great for any vegetable, not just cucumbers!
Easy Refrigerator Pickles
Because these are not canned in the traditional manner, they should always be kept refrigerated.
The best thing about this recipe is that you can experiment with the different flavors of Fruit Vinegar that we carry to create flavor profiles that you can't get anywhere else. Our personal favorite is to use Berry Basil Fruit Vinegar and our house Pickling Spice with Cucumber Slices. You can also use Green Tomatoes for a wonderful addition to almost any sandwich.
