Hi Jen- These are best when consumed within a year of making them!

Hi Carlee- A couple of issues could have caused this. Did you cut the ends off of the cucumbers? There is an enzyme in the ends of cucumbers which, when not removed, can cause soft pickles. Also, if the cucumbers are less than super fresh, they can yield mushy pickles.

It is the exact same ratio as in the Ball Complete Book of Home Preservation which is considered the bible of safe canning. I’m confident in it.

I just asked this same question. I already canned some 36 jars of pickles. I am hoping and praying it is safe. In the future, I will do 1:1 ratio.

I noticed your recipe is a 1:2 vinegar to water ratio. Is this safe? Does the salt and garlic add to the safety? I didn’t add garlic to all my jars. I just want to be sure I do not poison my family. 🙂

I made pint jars and processed for 15 minutes like recommended from ball. What went wrong and are the sealed jars self stable still?

Hi Haley- You sure can! The only thing you need to change is cutting the cukes into chips!
