Ingredients:

vegetables

3 tablespoons kosher salt

2 tablespoons sugar

1 1/4 cups distilled white vinegar, 5 percent acidity

2 tablespoons coriander seeds

6 garlic cloves, halved

4 to 6 long red or green hot chills, halved lengthwise

16 dill sprigs

Directions:

1. Pack vegetables into 2 clean 1-quart glass jars. In another jar, combine the salt, sugar, vinegar, coriander and garlic. Shake until the salt and sugar dissolve.

2. Add 2 cups of water and pour the brine over the vegetables. Tuck the chills and dill between the vegetables. Add enough water to keep the vegetables submerged. Close the jars and refrigerate overnight or for up to 1 month.

Bon Appetit!
