   • Start by soaking the 16 cucumbers overnight in a solution of 1 cup of salt and 3 gallons of water. This overnight soak will infuse the cucumbers with flavor and help them retain their crunchiness.

2. Get Your Jars Ready:

   • The next day, drain the cucumbers thoroughly. It’s time to get your quart jars prepped. You’ll need 16 quart-sized jars for this recipe.

3. Jar Assembly:

   • In each sterilized quart jar, place 1 dill sprig and 1 clove of garlic. Then, pack the cucumbers into the jars snugly. This will ensure they pickle evenly and retain their crisp texture.

4. Make the Pickling Solution:

   • In a large pot, combine the 16 cups of water, 1 cup of vinegar, and 3/4 cup of salt. Bring this mixture to a rolling boil, stirring to dissolve the salt completely.

5. Fill and Seal the Jars:

   • Carefully fill each jar with the hot pickling solution, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top. This headspace allows for proper sealing and expansion during processing.

6. Process the Jars:

   • Seal the jars tightly with their lids and bands. Now, it’s time to process them. Place the jars in a large canning pot filled with boiling water. Ensure the jars are covered with at least 1 inch of water.

7. Process Time:

   • Process the jars in the boiling water bath for 15 minutes. This processing time ensures that the pickles are safely preserved and ready for long-term storage.

8. Cool and Store:

   • After processing, carefully remove the jars from the water bath using canning tongs. Place them on a towel-lined countertop to cool completely. You might hear the satisfying “pop” of the lids sealing as they cool.

9. Enjoy Your Pickles:

   • Once cooled, store your Polish Dill Pickles in a cool, dark place. Allow them to cure for at least a week before diving in for the best flavor. These pickles will keep for up to a year, but we bet they won’t last that long!

Serving Suggestions:

• Serve these delicious Polish Dill Pickles alongside your favorite sandwiches, burgers, or charcuterie boards.
• Chop them up to add a tangy kick to potato salads, tuna salads, or pasta salads.
• These pickles also make a delightful addition to Bloody Marys or as a zesty garnish for your favorite cocktails.
