These pickles taste so fresh and have just the right amount of dill and garlic. They taste great along-side a hotdog on a bun. They also taste great alone as a healthy snack.

Tips:
- Choose the right cucumbers: Pickling cucumbers are best for making garlic dill pickles. They are small, firm, and have a thin skin.
- Prepare the cucumbers properly: Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and cut off the blossom ends. If the cucumbers are large, you can cut them into spears or slices.
- Make a flavorful brine: The brine is what gives the pickles their flavor. Use a combination of water, vinegar, sugar, salt, dill, garlic, and other spices to create a flavorful brine.
- Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your pickles the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Let the pickles ferment: The fermentation process is what gives pickles their characteristic sour flavor. Let the pickles ferment for at least 2 weeks, or longer for a more sour flavor.
- Store the pickles properly: Once the pickles are fermented, store them in a cool, dark place. They will keep for up to a year.
