Comment préparer Nana Mae's Garlic Dill Pickles

In a large saucepan, bring 5 cups of water, 2 cups white vinegar, and 1/2 cup pickling salt to a rolling boil. Stir until salt is completely dissolved.
Wash and trim 2 pounds pickling cucumbers. Cut into spears, about 2-3 inches long.
Pack the cucumber spears tightly into five clean, hot 1-quart canning jars. (Oven-heating the jars for 10-15 minutes at 200°F is helpful to prevent cracking).
Add 1-3 cloves of garlic and 2-3 dill flower heads to each jar.
Carefully pour the boiling brine over the cucumbers, leaving about 1/2 inch headspace at the top of each jar.
Secure lids tightly onto jars. Let cool completely.
Store on a cool, dark shelf for at least 4 weeks (preferably longer!), before opening. Do not refrigerate until opened.
Check the brine regularly. Discard if it becomes cloudy before opening.
