Use the freshest, firmest cucumbers you can find for the best results. Adjust the amount of chile pepper to your preferred level of spiciness. Ensure the cucumbers are fully submerged in the brine to prevent spoilage. A ceramic fermentation crock can also be used in place of a glass container. Don't skip the overnight soaking as this helps to ensure a crisp pickle. For a more intense garlic flavor, lightly crush the garlic cloves before adding them to the jar. Check the pickles daily after the fourth day to monitor their progress.
