A special recipe from a friend's collection, one that tastes as good as it looks! It's a tried and true recipe that never fails to please. Amazing how a recipe that is so easy to make could taste so good! NOTE I don't process mine - make as we have been making them in our area for generations. Processing does change the texture. If you have safety concerns you may do so if you wish - if processing I would recommend a 10 minute boiling water bath. Be sure to use non reactive containers (use stainless steel, unchipped emamel/porcelain - be sure your plastic bowls and containers are food grade)
Ingredients:
1 gallon mixed vegetables (mix of cucumbers, cauliflower, white pickling onions)
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
1/2 cup salt
5 cups sugar
5 cups vinegar
2 teaspoons celery seeds
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
Directions:
1. Prepare vegetables cutting into serving size pieces, sprinkle with 1/2 cup salt and let stand for three hours.
2. Rinse well with cold water to remove salt.
3. Brine Mix: Mix and bring to a boil.
4. Put vegetables in sterilized jars, cover with boiling brine and seal.
