Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into rounds or spears, depending on your preference.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar and salt dissolve. Remove from heat and let the brine cool to room temperature.

Place the sliced cucumbers into a clean, large glass jar or container with a lid.
Step 4
Add the garlic cloves, fresh dill sprigs, mustard seeds, and crushed red pepper flakes into the jar with the cucumbers.
Step 5
Pour the cooled brine over the cucumbers, ensuring that they are completely submerged in the liquid.
Step 6
Seal the jar or container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to develop. For best results, refrigerate for 48 hours before enjoying.
Step 7
Store the pickles in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve cold as a snack, side, or garnish.
