Método

1. Soak the cucumbers¹ in cold water for 3 hours, then trim off the ends.

2. Sterilize a 1 l jar over steam for 10 minutes and boil the lid for 5 minutes.

3. Place the horseradish⁴ and currant leaves, dill³, garlic², peppercorns, and bay leaf in the bottom, then pack in the cucumbers¹ tightly.

4. Pour boiling water over the cucumbers¹ and leave under the lid for 15 minutes. Drain the water into a saucepan.

5. Bring the drained water (about 500 ml) to a boil, dissolve 30 g salt⁸ and 30 g sugar⁹ in it, and boil for 2 minutes.

6. Pour the brine into the jar, add 2 g citric acid (on the tip of a spoon), fill to the rim, and seal immediately.

7. Turn the jar upside down and wrap it until cool. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 12 months, and keep an opened jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
