This spicy pickle recipe matches everything I crave about a spicy pickle: Garlic, Chips, and a little bit of heat with a whole lot of crunch. It’s based on a recipe I heard about on NPR’s All Things Considered Lost Recipe series. The listener wanted to recreate her aunt Minnie’s secret pickle recipe, but only had a few details to go by. To reverse engineer the recipe, NPR turned to no other than the doyenne of canning who supplied some very helpful intel for pickling pickles and the base for this homemade chips pickle recipe.
