Delicious, crispy Refrigerator Kosher Dill Pickles without the canning process! If you’re a dill pickle fan but not enthusiastic about canning, you’ll love my copycat recipe of the famous Claussen brand of dill pickles found in your grocery store’s refrigerator case.
For lots of us, canning season is at its height about now. Everyone’s putting up luscious fruits and tasty veggies to enjoy throughout the year.

One of our family’s favorites and the recipe I do without fail every year is kosher dill pickles. I’ve only done a few quarts so far this year and really should get busy doing some more.
I’ve done a few bread and butter pickles but no jams or preserves yet. Need to get those done while peaches are still at their peak. Can you tell that canning is something I really enjoy?
But what if you don’t have all the canning equipment or just don’t enjoy doing all that work? Well then, maybe refrigerator pickles would be more your style.
