How to Make Quicky Pickles
- Wash and slice 1 pound of pickling cucumbers into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Gently pack them into a clean quart-sized jar, along with 2 sprigs of fresh tarragon.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup white vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.
- Carefully pour the hot vinegar mixture into the jar, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top.
- Let the jar cool completely at room temperature, uncovered. This allows the pickling process to begin.
- Once cool, cover the jar and refrigerate for at least overnight. For best flavor, let them chill for up to 6 weeks!
- Enjoy your homemade Quicky Pickles! Serve them alongside sandwiches, burgers, or as a delicious side dish.
