Classic Dill Pickles

Step 1

Divide cucumbers and dill between jars. Bring vinegar, salt, sugar, peppercorns, caraway seeds, and 2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve salt and sugar. Pour hot brine into jars, dividing evenly, and cover. Let cool, then chill.

Step 2

Do Ahead: Cucumbers can be pickled 2 months ahead. Keep chilled.
