My Grandmother used to make these pickles when I was a little kid in 1/2 gallon paper milk cartons. I am trying to find her original recipe. I found this one and hope it is close. Let me know how they turn out if you make them before I do. Thanks, Brian Ingredients:
5 cucumbers (just a guess here) |
1 gallon water |
1 cup salt |
3 cups sugar |
4 cups vinegar |
1 cup water |
1/2 teaspoon allspice |
1 pinch alum, as needed |
Directions:
1. Day 1-3 - Soak pickles in water and salt for 3 days. 2. Day 3 - Drain and rinse pickles. Mix 2 cups of vinegar to 1 cup water. Pour over pickles. Bring to boil. Put in jars. 3. Mix 3 cups of sugar, 2 cups of vinegar and 1/2 tsp allspice. Heat. Pour over top of pickles and add a pinch of alum to each jar. Seal. |
