Wash the pickling cucumbers thoroughly under cold water and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, and kosher salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the salt dissolves.
Peel the garlic cloves and slightly crush them with the flat side of a knife.
Place half of the fresh dill at the bottom of a large glass jar or a few smaller jars. Add in garlic cloves, mustard seeds, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and chili flakes.
Pack the cucumber slices tightly into the jar(s), leaving about half an inch of space at the top.
Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the cucumbers, ensuring they are completely submerged. Add the remaining dill on top.
Seal the jar(s) with a lid and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, place them in the refrigerator.
Allow the pickles to marinate for at least 24 hours before consuming for maximum flavor.
Consume the pickle chips within 2 weeks for optimal freshness and crunchiness.
