DILL PICKLES (CRISP!) 
2 c. water
1 c. white vinegar
2 tbsp. canning salt
1 bunch of dill in each quart jar

Boil first three ingredients 5 minutes. Fill quart jars with cucumbers and dill. Pour boiling brine into jars of cucumbers and let set 5 or 10 minutes. Pour liquid from these jars back into kettle and boil again 10 minutes. Return to jars and seal.

Set sealed jars immediately into boiling water. Set off the heat and allow jars to cool completely in this pan of water. WATER NEED NOT COVER THE JARS. 1/2 to 2/3 up on jars. Do not process. This can be multiplied 10 times for 8 quarts of pickles.

 Bob Deardorff (California) says:
Best so far. Don't think that the second boiling needs to go for 10 minutes - 3 to 5 more than enough.

Peggy - add more water as pouring in back and forth some was lost in the transfer...

 Linda (Illinois) says:
This is my first dill recipe. Pickles are now two weeks old and are really crisp. I put 1 garlic clove and 5 peppercorns in each jar. Am going to make more tomorrow.

This is not a processing method that is recommended by the USDA as safe canning. I would be cautious.
