REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

I like to make a couple of HUGE glass jars (like the big Kraft Mayo jars for institutional use) of these to last until the next growing season. My DH doesn't even complain of the space they use in the 'fridge!

1. Prepare veggies:

7 cups thinly sliced green cukes (don't peel)
1 cup thinly sliced onion
1 cup thinly sliced green peppers
2 tablespoons salt -- Let all of this stand for 2 hours, then drain.

2. Mix and bring to a boil:

2 cups sugar
1 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon celery seeds

3. Cool and strain. Pour over the veggies which were drained. Store in 'fridge. The pickles may be used as soon as they have chilled.

4. Will keep well in the refrigerator.

NOTE: Although the recipe says to strain the seeds from the brine, we like to leave them in. To each his / or her own.

Spread the word
