Step-by-Step Instructions
To begin, gather all your ingredients and equipment. In a large bowl, combine the distilled white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, kosher salt, dill weed, garlic powder, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat. Whisk everything together until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved. I love watching the ingredients swirl and mingle in the bowl! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
