How to Make Russian Bear Pickles
Pickles are a staple in many Russian households, but have you ever heard of Russian Bear Pickles? These pickles are a unique and delicious twist on the classic dill pickle. They are tangy, crunchy, and have a hint of sweetness that sets them apart from other pickles. In this article, we will share a traditional Russian bear pickles recipe that is easy to follow and will have you making your own batch of these delicious pickles in no time. So put on your apron and get ready to impress your friends and family with your pickling skills!
Ingredients
To make Russian Bear Pickles, you will need: cucumbers, salt, sugar, garlic, dill, black peppercorns, and vinegar. You can use any type of cucumber, but small pickling cucumbers work best for this recipe. The amounts of each ingredient will depend on how many pickles you want to make, but we recommend using about 10-12 cucumbers for a medium-sized batch.
Directions
1. Start by cleaning and sterilizing your jars. This is an important step to ensure the pickles stay fresh and safe to eat. You can do this by boiling the jars and lids in water for about 10 minutes, then letting them air dry.
2. Wash and dry the cucumbers, then cut off the ends and slice them into spears or coins, depending on your preference.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of salt with enough cold water to cover the cucumbers. Let the cucumbers soak in this mixture for about 2 hours. This will help the pickles stay crunchy and absorb the flavors better.
4. Drain the cucumbers and rinse them well. Then, place them in a clean jar along with 3-4 cloves of garlic, a few sprigs of dill, and a handful of black peppercorns. You can also add other spices like mustard seeds or red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
5. In a small saucepan, mix together 2 cups of vinegar, 1 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil, then pour it over the cucumbers in the jar. Make sure all the cucumbers are covered with the liquid.
6. Close the jar and let it cool before refrigerating. The pickles will be ready to eat in about a week, but for the best flavor, let them sit in the fridge for 2-3 weeks before opening.
