Garden Recipe: Naturally Fermented Dill Pickles

[@OLGrace]

Thanks for this. Just picked my first cucumbers today. I used my grandmas refrigerator pickle recipe. Listening to your video, realized I did put the ends in my jar. oops. Now I know for future batches!

They will still taste delicious I'm sure!

I've never heard of adding grape leaves before!

[@spindleandspoonhomestead]

It's a nice trick if you have a grape vine!

[@1aliveandwell]

Had heard bay leaves may help keep crisp. So the natural bacteria are already on the cukes and dont add any like with yogurt or cheese?

[@spindleandspoonhomestead]

That is correct! Not sure about bay leaves but I wouldn't be surprised if they work too.

you dont have to waterbath pickles.just bring you liquid to a boil then put directly in jar with the cucumbers and seal!
