Which reminds me: can you please send me your recipe for these? you see, we have this Arabic grocery store here who sell a special type of cucumbers, exactly like the kind I used to eat in my childhood. I can't think of a better combination than to make kosher dill pickles with Arabic cucumbers...
Boil 7 pint jars and lids to steralise,leave in water while doing the rest of recipe
Boil 1 qt water 1 qt white vinager(other types discolor the pickles) 3/4 C pickling salt, or 1 cup kosher salt 3/4 C white sugar (optional:3T pickling spice in a smallbag,remove after 10minutes boil)
remove jars from water in eachjar place one clove garlic and a few bits of dill
scrub cukes and slice lengthwise into 1/2s or 1/4s
put the cukes into the jars, cramming them in tight, but make sure they are 1/2 inch below the rim of the jar.
Pour brine mix over cukes,fix lids,and boil for 10 minutes in a canning pot
remove and let cool. If the jars doesn't seal, put that jar in the fridge.
