Refrigerator Spicy Baby Dill Pickles
These classic small-batch refrigerator spicy baby dill pickles have fresh dill, garlic, chile pepper, and spices! So easy to make and very addicting.
I decided to make a batch of quick & easy refrigerator spicy baby dill pickles when I recently stumbled upon these adorable mini cucumbers at the store. I found a small-batch recipe on Dinner at the Zoo that sounded good so I gave it a try. My daughter is a massive dill pickle lover so I knew she would really enjoy these spicy and delicious little cuties.
How to Make Refrigerator Spicy Baby Dill Pickles
Combine the warm water with the kosher salt and set it aside to allow the salt to completely dissolve and for the water to cool down. Once cooled, add the vinegar and mix well.
Gently stuff the baby cucumbers, dill sprigs, chile pepper halves, garlic cloves, black peppercorns, crushed red pepper flakes, and coriander together in one large glass jar or split them between two jars.
Pour the vinegar mixture into the jar(s) until completely full and the pickles are submerged. Seal with a lid and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving. Enjoy.

Very fresh and crunchy!
I like the ingredients you used and the ease of making them. I especially like that you can make them in small batches.
Delicious recipe and I like the idea of using baby cukes.
