Ingredients
- 4 to 5 large Persian cucumbers (about 1 pound), quartered lengthwise
- 4 small sprigs fresh dill
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
Instructions
- Fit as many cucumber spears as possible into a 1-quart mason jar along with the dill, garlic, mustard, salt and sugar. Combine the vinegar with 2 cups water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Pour the hot mixture into the jar with the cucumbers (you may have some left over) and swirl gently to combine (be careful; the jar will be hot). Let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate at least overnight and preferably 2 days. The pickles keep, refrigerated, up to 2 weeks.

I didn’t have whole grain mustard so I used stone ground mustard and it worked just fine; it just made the liquid a little cloudy but the taste was still great!
🙂 surprisingly good! crunchy. No need to buy jarred pickles anymore.
I had pickles for breakfast, the day after making these! Delicious!
