Crunchy Dill Pickles: A Canning Photo Story


Dill pickles are a canning classic, and this weekend I preserved 30 jars of crunchy dills from one case of local pickling cucumbers. I took plenty of photos to give those who have never experienced canning pickles a sense of what it looks and feels like to turn fresh farm veggies into something crunchy, sour and oh-so-good.

For other canning photo stories, see Cucumber Relish and Pickled Beets. All recipes are in my cookbook The Canning Kitchen.
