Have you ever made pickles at home? You should — it couldn’t be easier. Today, I’m slicing cucumbers into chips (this is a great shape to use with sandwiches, but you can cut them however you like) and pickling them in a vinegar brine. These tangy vegetables will be ready to eat after a few hours and will last in your fridge for the rest of the summer. Make them today and enjoy!

Sarah’s Tip of the Day:
When pickling, cucumbers with fewer seeds and thinner skins work best. Choose small Kirby cucumbers or larger European ones.
