How to Make Sweet And Crunchy Deli Style Pickles

  1. Wash and quarter 1 pound of small pickling cucumbers lengthwise.
  2. Pack the quartered pickles tightly into a clean 1-quart canning jar.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup white vinegar, 1/2 cup Splenda Granular (or your preferred sweetener), 2 tablespoons salt, 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds, 1 teaspoon celery seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns.
  4. Add 1-2 thinly sliced jalapeños and 2 minced garlic cloves (optional) to the saucepan.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the salt is completely dissolved. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Carefully pour the hot pickling juice over the pickles in the jar, ensuring the pickles are fully submerged.
  7. Cover the jar tightly with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4-5 days before serving. The flavor will deepen and intensify over time (up to 2 weeks). Enjoy!
