Homemade Fermented Dill Pickles are a delicious and healthy snack.
Now let’s be honest guys: is there anything cooler than fermenting your own veggies? I really don’t think so! It’s like the ultimate happiness for both the housewife and the hipster part of me.

So be prepared, because once you make your own fermented dill pickles you’ll never be satisfied with the store-bought version again.
