I'm trying to make garlic flavored quick/refrigerator pickles, but when I simply try to increase the amount of garlic in the jars, they end up getting fairly spicy. I am using some red pepper flake, but not much.
I've had store bought garlic pickles that just have a garlic flavor without the bite. Is there a way to make my pickles more "garlicky" without getting the extra spiciness from the garlic?
