It’s so easy to pickle your own cucumbers. This combination of spices is wonderful, but you can use whatever whole spices you like or have on hand, such as coriander seeds or fennel seeds. The pickles taste good even after 1 hour but, of course, get better with time. They are great for snacking, stuffing into sandwiches or burgers, or chopping up and mixing into tuna or egg salad to add a little zip.
