Ingredients

Instructions

  • Spread the cucumbers, bay leaves, garlic, Old Bay, crushed red pepper, and dill seed evenly across four pint-sized canning jars.
  • In a saucepan over high heat, combine the vinegar, water, and salt and bring to a quick boil.
  • Remove the vinegar mix from the heat and pour it into the canning jars, atop the cucumbers and seasonings. Leave 1/2 an inch space at the top of each jar. Seal the jars airtight with their lids.
  • Place jars in a large pot and fill the pot with hot water, covering the pint jars by two inches. Bring the hot water to a boil and let the cans sit in the hot water bath for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars and allow them to cool until they reach room temperature. Check the lid seals for any leaks, then refrigerate.
  • For best flavor, allow the pickles to refrigerate for at least a week before eating.
