refrigerator pickles & wilty greens

I've been making refrigerator pickles.  It's super easy.  For this jar I sliced 4 or 5 pickling cucumbers thin with my salad shooter along with some red onions (which later turned everything pink) and then added some red chili flakes and garlic.  I put a tablespoon or two of pickling salt in the mason jar and added all the chopped vegetables.  I poured in white vinegar till it covered everything, screwed on this lid, put in the frig, and in four days they were good to eat. 






I do this sometimes when I'm out of frig space.
Trim 1/2" off the stems and put in water like you would with flowers. Wilty greens will perk up in water.
