Absolutely the best! I was looking for a way to use up a proliferation of pickles (mine are burpless eating, not pickling variety) and this recipe was a winner - very easy to make - very tasty - everyone has raved about them. Best of all, the pickles stayed crispy for over 2-weeks (can't say how much longer, we ate them all and I had to make more!). The only directions I would change are heating only the sugar and vinegar together, and putting the spices directly into a layered cucumber- & onion-filled quart jar. This way you don't lose any of the yummy spices on the sides of the pan - they are all in the jar.

Great way to use up all those cucumbers. I make this with splenda for a low calorie dish.
