These kicky pickles are the perfect way to use up some of summer's zucchini bounty. Garlicky, dill-y, and a good touch of heat thanks to red pepper flakes. Plus, they're so easy. SO. Easy.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds medium zucchini
4 cloves garlic (peeled and halved)
3/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more to taste (we like up to 1/2 teaspoon))
6 black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 head dill (or a few sprigs)

Steps:

  • Wash and dry a pint-sized glass jar with airtight lid. I used a Weck jar.
  • Cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch slices. Place in jar along with the cloves of garlic. You might have to do a little squeezing and pushing to get them all in there.
  • Add the vinegar, sugar, red pepper flakes, peppercorns, mustard seeds, and salt to a small saucepan. Set it over medium heat and bring just to a boil.
  • Remove from heat and carefully pour over zucchinis and garlic in the jar. Top with dill, immersing it as much as possible. Place the lid on the jar and refrigerate for 24 hours.
  • Open and serve.
  • These keep 7-10 days in the fridge (that's as long as I've had them before they were all gone); but some sources say refrigerator pickles can last up to a month or more.

These pickles are a waste of time and ingredients. They're not spicy, they're not tangy, and they're not crunchy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pickles didn't turn out crunchy. They're still tasty, but they're not as good as I hoped they would be.

I had some trouble finding zucchini that was the right size. I ended up having to cut some of the pieces in half.

These pickles are a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll add a little bit of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pickles turned out too spicy. Next time I'll use less red pepper flakes.
