Directions:
- 1ST DAY: Dissolve salt in 1 gallon boiling water.
- Pour over cucumbers and let stand overnight.
- 2ND DAY: Pour off salt water.
- Add 1 gallon boiling water mixed with alum.
- Let stand overnight.
- 3RD DAY: Pour off alum water.
- Add 1 gallon clear boiling water.
- Let stand 24 hours.
- 4TH DAY: Boil 1 gallon vinegar and spices wrapped in cloth bag.
- Boil 15 minutes and pour over drained cucumbers.
- Let stand 9 days moving spice bag around each day.
- 13TH DAY: Slice or cut pickles and layer alternately with sugar until all sugar is used.
- Let stand overnight.
- 14TH DAY: Can.
- (Sugar will pull juice out of cucumbers and make a syrup.) Recipe calls for unsealed pickles; however, I heat the syrup and pickle slices and pack them in hot jars.
- I store these in refrigerator.
