  • 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) kosher salt
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped

Toss cucumbers with dill; transfer to 4-cup (1 L) canning jar. Pour simmering mixture over cucumbers; let cool for 20 minutes. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 weeks.
