- Small courgette (about 1 inch in diameter) make the best pickles, but over-grown ones can make satisfactory pickles if they are halved, seeded, then cut into half-rings. I prefer to use the dill heads before they are completely mature and dry because of their soft flavor and appearance. Trim the ends from the courgette and slice about 3/8 inch thick. Halve the onions lengthwise, then slice them crosswise about 1/4 inch thick. Layer the vegetables in a glass, ceramic, or possibly stainless steel bowl, sprinkling each layer with salt. Cover with ice water. Place a plate on top of the vegetables and a weight on the plate. Let stand for 2 hrs. Drain the courgette and onions and rinse well. Drain again while you prepare the pickling liquid. Mix the vinegar, water, sugar, and mustard in a large nonreactive pan. Bring the mix to a boil, then simmer for 5 min.
- Remove the pan from the heat, add in the dill heads or possibly seed and the courgette and onions, and cover. Let the mix stand for 2 hrs, tossing occasionally. Meanwhile, fill a canning kettle with sufficient water to cover pint jars and bring the water to a boil. Sterilize four pint jars and scald four lids and rings. Bring the courgette mix to a boil in its pan and stir in the garlic and dill leaves. Ladle into warm, sterilized pint jars.
- Cover with lids and rings and process in the boiling water bath according to manufacturer's directions for 10 min at sea level. Store the pickles for a week at room temperature before using. If any jars don't seal, store them in the refrigerator and use the contents within 2 weeks.
