SUMMARY
Yield 0 File under Misc. Recipes & Requests
INSTRUCTIONS
make a solution of
1 cup salt
3 quarts water
1 quart vinegar (I use apple cider)
Bring to a boil. Take clean jars and stuff any or all of the following in. Fresh dill, lots of it. A chunk of horseradish , hot peppers, about a tablespoon or so of pickling spice, garlic, gotta have garlic and of course, freshly picked cucumbers. Oh, make sure you really wash the cukes. I used to do so many jars of pickles that I would put the washer through a cycle with TSP in it to clean it out and then wash the cukes on gentle cold cycle. I try to keep them small and I never cut them. Always use them whole. Have your lids hot then pour the BOILING LIQUID over the cukes, immediately put on the lids and your done. Dont shake them up and let them set at least a couple of weeks. You can also make California Mix with this.
