easy refridgerator pickle recipe??

[sue]

Wondering if anybody has one that tastes good?

[merryfl]

I saw one on TV just the other day that sounded really good. I was gonna check the website and copy the recipe, but now I can't remember what show it was on! I hate getting old! I'll try to remember to think about it and maybe I can come up with it.

K. The one i used was water, vinegar, salt, sugar, garlic. I added onion, celery seed, dill. No boiling the liquid first.

This one had corriander seed in it and dill - don't remember what else. You had to boil the vinegar with the spices and then pour it over the sliced cukes. Once they cooled to room temp, you could bag or bottle them up and put them in the fridge. I still can't remember where I saw it...Sorry

I added a 1/2 c of vinegar to them this morning lol.... should've just gotten a pkg of that pickling mix and been done with it

Although instead of regular pepper I would probably use peppercorns~
