Quick pickles are a popular home project because they do not need a long fermentation. A simple vinegar brine gives you crisp cucumbers in about an hour, and they keep in the fridge for a few weeks.

Tips

Use fresh, firm cucumbers for the crispest result.
Keep pickles refrigerated and use within three weeks.
