Postup

1. Soak the cucumbers¹ in cold water for 2 hours, then trim off the ends. Wash a 1 l jar with baking soda and rinse it with boiling water.

2. Place the horseradish⁴ leaf, dill³, peeled garlic², and peppercorns in the bottom. Pack the cucumbers¹ in tightly.

3. Dissolve 14 g salt in 400 ml warm boiled water to make a 3.5% brine. Cool it to room temperature.

4. Pour the brine over the cucumbers¹ to the rim so they are fully submerged. Cover the jar with a lid without tightening it fully, or with cheesecloth.

5. Leave at room temperature, 18–22 °C, for 3–5 days. Slightly open the jar every day to release gas. The brine will turn cloudy and bubbles will appear.

6. Check for doneness: the cucumbers¹ should be olive-colored and tangy. Close the jar and refrigerate. Store for up to 45 days.
