True to their name, these crunchy refrigerator pickles rarely last long. Fresh cucumbers are salted, drained, then bathed in a tangy brine punched up with garlic and a fiery hit of red pepper flakes. There's no canning required, just a rest in the fridge, and you're rewarded with crisp, garlicky, spicy spears that make an addictive snack straight from the jar.
