REFRIGERATOR PICKLES BASIC BRINE

I love refrigerator pickles. With little to no effort, you get days’ worth of crunchy, healthy snacks. Pretty much any seasonal veg can be pickled. Use this brine in the four recipes that follow.

2 cups (500 mL) water

1 cup (250 mL) white vinegar 1 tbsp (15 mL) kosher salt

1 Combine water, vinegar and salt; stir to dissolve salt.

Makes 3 cups (750 mL)
