pickles

[Mlowery]

I didn't know if anyone could help me with a pickle question. I pickled cucumbers a couple weeks ago. I cold packed them, then added the boiling vinegar over them. The jars sealed and everything, but i wasn't sure whether they are safe to keep on a shelf because i didn't actually process them. I've been keeping them in the fridge so far. Does anyone know if they are safe to keep on a shelf in a cupboard?

Thanks

as long as the lid did seal tight. did it make a popping noise when it sealed.

Yes, they popped and are sealed tight. I guess it's ok to store them in a cool dark place then. Thanks!
