Master Pickle Recipe?

Well… there are a zillion pickle recipes out there & a lot of ways to make pickles. I usually recommend the Ball Blue Book for beginners. There are several dill pickle recipes in it and they are all tried & true. You can find it at any book store/canning supply or on Amazon. It’s like $7. Everyone’s tastes differ so once you try a recipe or two & get the basics you can change the flavorings to suit your taste. The most important thing in any pickle recipe is FRESH cucumbers. They should be firm & crisp. Give them a little twist. If the flex they’re not fresh.
