Quick Pickles are delicious, small-batch friendly, and super easy tomake. Plus, they require no special equipment and are usually ready to eat within a day or two of preparation.
Quick pickles, also known as refrigerator pickles, are simply vegetables that are pickled in a vinegar, water, and salt solution and stored in the refrigerator. (Depending on the recipe, the solution may also include sugar and other spices.)
Our garden is bursting at the seams right now, and we arehustling to preserveall that fresh garden bounty, and one of our favorite ways to do that is pickling. (Yeah, I know, Portland. We can pickle that.)
Our fridge is crammed with tart, tangy quick pickles that will last us through the next couple of months until our traditionally canned, "real" pickles have had time to percolate in their jars out on the pantry shelves.

Thank you for the small recipes. I do a lot of canning but sometimes am put off because my recipes are a lot larger and I don't want to get the big water bath ready...I can do most of these easily, even the recipes calling for a water bath...just use one of my larger pots. And I can try one recipe to see if I/we like it...to see if I want to make more.
