Step 1: Use Fresh Cucumbers

The fresher the cucumbers, the crunchier your pickles will be.
If the cucumbers are already a bit soft, then your pickles will be soft too.
Plan a trip to the market or produce aisle right before you begin your pickling
adventure.
 Step 2: Slicing

Always slice off the

blossom end of the
cucumber.

Step 3: Consider Your cuts and Add Salt

Dont skimp on the salt!

You need the salt to draw out water
from the cucumbers and this will
preserve the pickles for longer.
