I love this recipe! It is super simple, and has a great flavor. I love that only two cucumbers are needed so if you don't have a garden it won't cost a lot to make. I just put them in a plastic container with a lid. I would like to know how to can them to store.

These pickles are GREAT! I have shared them with my friends and family. Everyone has loved them. I ended up going to the farmers market and buying more pickles (cucumbers) to make more.
