Ingredients
- A quarter cup of salt
- Two quarts of water, gently warmed
- Two cloves of garlic, finely minced to your preference
- Trio of fresh thyme sprigs, finely chopped
- Trio of fresh oregano sprigs, finely chopped
- Two teaspoons of flavorful harissa
- Generous tablespoon of ground coriander
- A tablespoon of sesame seeds for texture
- A sprinkle of aromatic cumin seeds
- A tablespoon of sumac powder for a tangy twist
- A bunch of sixteen small pickling cucumbers or adjust to your needs
Step 1
Begin by pouring water into a large, 1-gallon glass jar that comes with a secure lid. Stir in the salt until fully dissolved, infusing the liquid with flavor. Next, add the aromatic garlic, letting its pungent essence mingle with the brine.
Step 2
Continuing the flavorful journey, sprinkle in the fragrant thyme, earthy oregano, and spicy harissa, layering the jar with a medley of enticing scents.
Step 3
In a separate pan, gently toast the coriander, sesame seeds, and cumin seeds over medium-low heat. Stir continuously to release their rich aromas without scorching, allowing the kitchen to fill with a warm, inviting fragrance. Once the spices are beautifully fragrant, about 30 seconds later, incorporate them into the seasoned salt mixture, along with a pinch of tangy sumac.
Step 4
Seal the jar tightly with its lid and give it a good shake, letting the contents blend harmoniously.
Step 5
Now, the fun part - carefully nestle as many fresh cucumbers as you can into the jar, ensuring they are fully immersed in the flavorful brine.
Step 6
With the jar securely sealed, place it in the cool embrace of the refrigerator for a patient waiting period of 10 days. During this time, the cucumbers will undergo a magical transformation, emerging as deliciously pickled delights ready to elevate your culinary creations.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
