Thanks April for the recipe. I'm going to give it a try. Never made this before. Should be an experience for me. Hope I don't screw up.

@LM907 Just keep testing it, this recipe is really basic, if you like more spice add it.. :-)

No vinegar in the brine? That's what a simple brine contains, it's also what makes pickles sour

LOVE zucchini!  Thanks for sharing a new way to use them. :) I like slicing them up and frying (or on the grill) them in a little butter, lemon juice, pepper and salt. Great quick side dish! Or in a potato pack on the barbeque...oh now you've made me hungry. Never thought to can them; thanks for sharing. :)
