Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. KOSHER SOUR PICKLES RECIPE-.
  2. Cut 1/16 inch off the blossom end. Discard any cucumbers that are bruised or damaged.
  3. In a 3 1/2 quart glass jar add the Kirby Cucumbers standing them upright (Turning the jar on its side will help).
  4. Put all the spices into a large bowl (Alum Optional), add some water and mix. Then pour this mixture into the jar, top off with water. Adding a piece of rye bread is also optional.
  5. Place a small item (A piece of plastic, wood, etc.) on top to keep the Kirby Cucumbers down and under the water/brine.
  6. Close jar and turn upside down to mix all the ingredients -.
  7. Next open jar, put plastic wrap on the top (Use a rubber band to keep in place); Then using a kitchen knife punch many holes in the plastic wrap in order to let some of the brine gases out.
  8. Let the Kirby cucumbers stand 2-3 weeks (in a COOL location) depending on how fast they cure in the brine; From time-to-time you can remove any scum on the top, add a little salted water to top off - and shake the mixture. Then place in the refrigerator!
  9. Note: For half sour pickles, let it pickle for about 1 week - and then place in the refrigerator!
  10. KOSHER SOUR TOMATOES RECIPE-.
  11. Use the same recipe as outlined above for Kosher Sour Pickles . However, use about 10-12 green tomatoes (about 3 lbs) in place of the kirby cucumbers. Also, sour tomatoes need a little more salt then kirby pickles - so add to taste.
  12. Take off the tomato stems. As an option cut away the brown area and leave a small hole which will allow the brine to penetrate into the tomatoes (you can also cut the tomatoes in half).
  13. Let stand 2-3 weeks depending on how fast the tomatoes cure in the brine. Then place in the refrigerator!
  14. NOTE: If you can find green Plum Tomatoes you might want to try them as well!
