Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 seedless cucumber cut in half, seeds scraped out, finely diced or pulsed in the food processor
  • 1 cup dill pickles finely diced (about 4 whole pickles, depending on pickles size)
  • 1/2 cup sweet onion finely diced
  • 1 clove garlic peeled and finely minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup pickle brine
  • 1 teaspoon fresh jalapeño minced, or more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh habanero minced, or more to taste

Method
 

  1. Toss together your cucumbers, pickles, onions, bell peppers, garlic, hot peppers (if using), and salt.
  2. Drizzle the pickle brine over the mixture and toss again.
  3. Cover tightly and refrigerate for an hour before using to give the flavours a chance to mingle and marry.

Notes

Adjust the spice levels to your taste by increasing or decreasing the jalapeño and habanero.
