Thanks, gonna change that right now. Yes, you are exactly right - I really like the 1:1 ratio of vinegar to water in pickles. But you can mess around with that. Thanks for pointing this out to me. And sorry for delayed reply - I got baby brain real bad. Just getting back into the Pantry after a 2-month maternity pause... Oh – typo!! Thanks, gonna change that right now.

I noticed you left the quantity of water out of that recipe, so I went with two cups. Did you also use 1:1? I made your zucchini slices tonight.

Thanks for stopping by. Hmmm, I've never heard of that happening. I wonder why they didn't seal. I've never kept track of how long it takes them to seal after using the low temp pasteurization method. Perhaps it just takes a little longer? Anyway, if they did end up sealing my guess would be that it's fine to take them out of the fridge and treat them as usual? I hope they turn out nice and crunchy for you, I really like that method!

I do have a question about your pickles. I tried a batch using the slow temp method. when i removed them from the water, the tops didn't pop down within the first 1/2 hour, so i became paranoid and refrigerated them. CHecked on them several hours later, and indeed, the tops had popped down. Can I remove them from fridge now and put in my pantry? Also, for the next time I prepare this recipe, how long should I leave them on the counter awaiting the pop?
