Method

1

Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and trim the ends.

2

Layer fresh dill, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns on the bottom of each jar. Add mustard seeds and peppercorns right before pouring the brine.

3

Fill the jars to the top with boiling water, cover with lids, and let sit for 20 minutes.

4

Pour the water from the jars back into a pot. Add salt and sugar. Bring to a boil, then stir in the vinegar.

5

Pour the hot brine over the cucumbers and seal the jars immediately with lids.

6

Wrap the jars in a blanket or towels and let them sit undisturbed for 24 hours.

7

If you plan to store the cucumbers at room temperature, do a double water bath before adding the brine: pour boiling water into the jars, wait 10–15 minutes, drain, and repeat. Only then pour in the hot brine.
