Recipe No. 4

QUICK DILLS

These pickles keep well refrigerated in air tight container. If Kirby cucumbers are not available the English Seedless are a good substitute.

4 to 6 Kirby cucumbers cut in to 1 inch cubes
1 small bunch dill
12 whole peppercorns
1 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 clove garlic

Cut the cucumbers into chunks, and place in a heat proof bowl with 12 to 15 sprigs of dill.  Set aside.
Place peppercorns, vinegar, salt, and sugar in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Add garlic, and bring to
a boil. Remove from heat, and pour hot mixture over reserved cucumbers. Let stand 30 to 40 minutes.
