For a more intense flavor, add a pinch of white pepper or a few slices of red onion to the brine.
Using a mandoline ensures uniformly thin slices, which pickle more quickly and evenly.
These pickled cucumbers are best served chilled. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Consider using different herbs, such as dill or mint, for a unique twist on the classic recipe.
