I have two of the three. Will have the pickles for dinner, and I can always shut off the heat. As for the aforementioned unmentionable clothing, wouldn't be caught dead in them.

Pickles were great. You'll have to explain what the other stuff is in there. I never had homemade before, so I assume it's in there for some reason.

Yup, I agree. They can't spoil the fun in here.

never had homemade? wow...Ken's right..the dill is just the flavoring and it's done it's job. Have to wait about 6 weeks after I put them up to get the full flavor!

At least I didn't have to tell you how to open a mason jar... :D

Duh, should have figured that one out by myself. So the longer the dill is left in there the pickles will get more tangy?

That tang comes from the vinegar...the taste comes from the dill and well...the salt is just that..a preservative...
