Al's garlic pickles.

I just had to try these. The only thing I changed was that I prefer cider vinegar. And I didn't have pickling salt. So I used Kosher. The mason jar vacuum gizmo is perfect for this!I forgot to take a pic of them in the ice water. I'll try to wait 5 days before I try one.

Your gonna love them!
BTW I just got one of those ball jar vacuum adapters.
I'm waiting for my dill plants to flower, then it will be pickle time here again.
I like to use the dill flowers instead of the leaves, but in a pinch, I've been know to use dried dill!

Thank Al. I'll try the dill flower when they become available. Still in the deep freeze up this way.

Sounds good and the waiting game begins again.

Looks awesome! Thanks for sharing. I have not seen Al’s recipe...definitely gonna need to check that out.

I’ve been looking at a new vacuum sealer. What is the jar attachment?

Looks great, and I’m a pickle hound. Can’t believe I haven’t made pickles yet.

It hooks up to your foodsaver vacuum sealer so you can vacuum seal mason jars.

Works very well. And you don't need any vacuum canisters.

One of my projects for when we get our gardens going again and winter is gone will be pickling :)

 

[Steve H]

They are very good! Thanks for the recipe Al. I made another batch last night. 4 pound of cukes. This time I made them with pickling salt and fresh garlic, not the minced jar stuff.

Does anyone know if the Ball Jar vacuum sealer thing will work with a Vac-Master 350?

Does it have the acc button and a canister hose port ? Just FYI . The hose has male connections , the equipment is female .
