Garlic-Dill Pickles (NY deli style)
(for your pastrami, turkey or pulled pork sandwhiches)

12 pickling cucumbers

4 cloves garlic sliced
2 teaspoon pickling spices
4 cups water
4 tablespoons kosher salt
1 bunch fresh dill

mix the water with the salt till dissoved(brine solution).
wash & cut off the ends of the cucumbers.
arrange some dill & some garlic in the bottom of a deep pyrex dish.
place the cucumbers on top with pickling spices.
add the rest of the dill & garlic.
pour the brine solution over the cucumbers to cover completely (use a heavy plate to weigh down)
3-5 days the pickles are done [ half pickled, but will continue to get more sour]
place in the refrigerator

note: any white layer forming on top of the brine is to be removed.
