I was blown away by the flavor! This is the first recipe that I haved ever tried to make pickles with and I am sticking with it. Very simple to do and I'm sure that I will be passing this recipe out to my friends and neighbors.

These are the best dill pickles to make. They have great taste and the recipe size allows you to always have home made and fresh available. And very cost friendly. Your friends and family will think they came from the deli or refrigerated section at the grocery store.
