Dill and Garlic Pickled Cucamelons Recipe

You will need:

1 lb cucamelons
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, sliced
2 teaspoons dill

Instructions

Start by washing the cucamelons thoroughly and setting them aside to dry.
In a saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, and kosher salt. Bring the mixture to a boil.
While the mixture is heating, slice your garlic cloves and add them to the jars you will be using for pickling.
Once the cucamelons are dry, add them to the jars as well.
When the vinegar mixture has reached a boil, pour it over the cucamelons and garlic in the jars, ensuring they are completely covered.
Add 2 teaspoons of dill to each jar.
Seal the jars tightly and allow them to cool to room temperature.
Once the jars have cooled, store them in the refrigerator for at least 48 hours before consuming. This allows the cucamelons to fully absorb the flavors.
