INSTRUCTIONS
Cut large cucumber lengthwise in quarters, then in 1" long pieces.
Combine cucumber, garlic, if desired, and salt in a glass bowl. Cover with
ice cubes. Let stand in a cool place at least 6 hours or overnight. Drain
well.
Combine vinegar, water, dill seed and crushed red pepper in a saucepan.
Bring to a boil. Add drained cucumbers, return to boil. Cover and cook 2
min. Remove garlic cloves. Spoon into hot sterilized jars. Wipe jar rims.
Seal.
MY NOTE: this recipe did not call for processing in a hot water bath so I
made 1/2 batch and kept them in the fridge. Similar recipe in Bernardin
Guide to Home Preserving calls for processing 10 minutes at altitudes up to
1000 ft.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
