Grandma's Breadstuff As Well As Butter Pickles

When I was a piddling daughter I watched my (very German) Aunt Welentina Ezlinger make pickles inwards her basement. I climbed upward on a stool as well as watched her business upward the hot jars as well as seat "seeds" inwards each one. She as well as then packed the jars tight amongst cucumbers from her garden and poured a hot vinegar liquid over them. That was most threescore years ago, but I scream back it similar it was yesterday. I was hence impressed!! I intend of her when I brand this recipe.

We dearest these breadstuff as well as butter pickles!! They are fresh as well as brilliant tasting as well as are worlds improve than commercial pickles!!


 
 
 
GRANDMA's BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES        half dozen PINTS
 
4 cups water
1/4  loving cup pickling common salt (not regular salt)
10 large pickling cucumbers
ice cubes (I role 2 trays of H2O ice cubes)
3 cups sugar
2 cups water
2 cups apple tree cider vinegar
2 teaspoons dry reason turmeric
2 teaspoons mustard seed
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
 
Wash the pickling cucumbers as well as land them into 1/8" slices (I cutting mine but a tad thicker than 1/8").
 
 
In a LARGE bowl, mix four cups H2O as well as 1/4 loving cup pickling salt until good dissolved. Add cucumbers as well as H2O ice cubes as well as gently swirl, making certain the slices are all submerged.  Let cucumber slices soak for 2 hours.
 
After 2 hours, drain the cucumbers (throw away the liquid) and rinse completely amongst fresh water (I rinse mine 2 or 3 times).
 
In a large/deep pan, mix 3 cups sugar, 2 cups water, 2 cups apple tree cider vinegar, 2 teaspoons dry reason turmeric, 2 teaspoons mustard seed as well as 1/2 teaspoon celery seed. Bring this mixture to a boil.
 
Reduce oestrus to LOW as well as seat the cucumber slices in. Stir gently as well as permit the cucumber sit down inwards the hot liquid until they are all hot (but non cooked). Don't permit the cucumbers boil.
 
Remove the slices from the hot liquid (with tongs) as well as pack straight into sterilized PINT size bricklayer jars (pack every bit many every bit you lot tin larn into the jars...pack tightly).
 
When the jars are all packed amongst cucumber slices, convey the pot of vinegar liquid dorsum to a boil. Remove from the oestrus as well as pour into the jars of cucumber slices, to inside 1/4" of the top. Run a CLEAN knife approximately the sides of the jars to take away whatever air bubbles.
 
Wipe off the rims of the jars amongst a build clean moist towel as well as screw on the 2 land lids.
 
If you lot are going to role these pickles inside 2-3 months, you lot tin just keep them in the refrigerator at this stage.  If you lot desire to leave of absence on them for a lot longer or if you lot desire to shop them inwards the pantry, you'll select to process the PINTS immediately inwards a hot H2O privy for 10 minutes.
 
Whether you lot leave of absence on them inwards the fridge, or seat them through a hot H2O bath, you lot volition select to permit the cucumbers "pickle" for 2 or 3 weeks earlier you lot consume them, gently "shaking" the jars in ane lawsuit a day.
