Fast Dill Pickles - My recipe
Ingredients:
Pickles (small size), pickling salt (does not contain iodine), white sugar, garlic, dill umbrellas with seeds, mustard seeds, dried crushed coriander seeds, table vinegar, dried crushed hot chili pepper, ceramic or glass jar with lid.
Amount:
Pickles - 2 lbs, salt - 2 tbsp, sugar - 1tbsp, table vinegar - 4 tbsp, garlic - 1 whole clove, dill umbrellas (5-6), mustard seeds - 1 tsp, coriander seeds - 1 tsp, chili pepper to taste, water - 1 liter.
Preparation:
1) Load your clean ceramic pot with cucumbers, garlic cloves, dill, mustard seeds, dried crushed coriander seeds, and dried crushed hot chili pepper.
2) Measure 2 tablespoons of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 4 tablespoon of vinegar into the ceramic pot. Have your water boiling in the kettle. Pour the boiling water into the pot, stir well, cover with lid and let your pickles sit for one day at the room temperature (usually kitchen). After 24 hours place your pot with dill pickles into the fridge and allow your pickles to saturate in the brine for 48 hours (just forget about your pickles and be patient!). In 3 days your dill pickles are ready. Serve chilled. Keep refrigerated.
Beer sampling at Gustav’s Restaurant in Portland, OR.
Sampled: Spatten Helles, Spatten Oktoberfest, Warsteiner Dunkel, Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse, Hofbrau Original Munich Helle, Paulaner Oftoberfest, Hobfrau Hefe Weizen, Hofbrau Munchen Delicator Doppelbock.
We liked them all. Will be back for Paulander Oktoberfest (amber in color, this beer has a sweet malty and caramel nose with a lightly toasty and very nutty taste, slightly sweet and hinting of molasses {6% ABV}) and Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse (a true German style wheat beer; light in color, with clove and a hint of banana {5.0% ABV}).
Traditional German restaurant.
