Dill Pickles

1. 1

   Combine the cucumbers and onions in a medium bowl and salt them generously. They should be as salty as you want your final pickles-about as salty as a potato chip. Add the garlic, dill, and spices and toss to mix. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

2. 2

   The next day, drain off any liquid that has leached out of the onions and cucumbers. Douse the vegetables with the white vinegar and marinate, covered, for 3 to 4 hours in the fridge.

3. 3

   Drain off the vinegar and store the pickles, covered, in the fridge. They'll last for a week. Add more chopped dill before serving.
