Here is the recipe:

Isn't "picklewater" also known as "Dill Brine" (or just "brine")?  That's what
I tell waiters I'm allergic to in a complete fallacy to get them to pay
attention when I ask for no pickles with my burger...(1)

And, you copyrighted Uber-garlic?!?!?!  But, my friends and I use Uber-X as an

should see how sensitive they get to that fact... as much as I hate our
letigous society, sometimes it comes in handy.

(2) You might be getting the idea by now that my interest in these pickles is
purely academic... and you'd be right.  I like spicy food, and I like cooking,
so the recipe was of interest to me...
