Sunshine Dill Pickles Recipes

3 DAY SUN PICKLES RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix water, pickling salt and vinegar in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil and boil for five minutes.
• Set to the side and cool for about 5 minutes, or until luke warm.
• In a large gallon sized jar, place dill, cut onion, peeled garlic and cucumbers. Place cucumber last, and fill the jar.
• Pour warm mixture into the jar and put the lid on.
• Set jar outside in the sun for 3 days.
• After three days, open the jar and test a pickle. If it is to your liking, place the jar in the fridge. This will keep the pickles crunchy.

SUNSHINE PICKLES

Steps:

• Cut ends off cucumbers and wash.
• Pack the cucumbers in jar with dill and garlic to taste.
• (I prefer fresh dill from my garden--usually two to four dill heads. Four garlic cloves seems to hit the happy medium mark for the whole family--the garlic flavor does get stronger as they stand though.) Stir together the warm water, vinegar and canning salt, then pour over the cucumbers.
• Place the slice of dark rye bread on top.
• Put lid on loosely.
• Set in the sun for four days.
• Take the rye bread off.
• Chill for two days and then you can use them.

SUNSHINE DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• In a gallon glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, place a layer of dill in the bottom, then a layer of cukes; add garlic cloves if desired.
• Keep layering dill & cukes to the neck of the jar; finish with a layer of dill.
• Add vinegar and salt to the top of the jar; fill with cold tap water.
• Cover and screw on tightly (add a doubled over square of wax paper or plastic wrap if you like, too).
• Give the jar a few good shakes to distribute the salt.
• Set in a sunny spot outside for four days; mark the calendar with the "due date."
• Turn the jar slightly each day (for an even tan); leave out an extra day if rainy or cloudy.
• Chill and eat.
• IDEA: Add green or red pepper slices along with the dill for a taste explosion!
• SUGGESTION: When scrubbing the fresh cukes, sort-as-you-go into piles of uniform size. This makes filling the jar go much quicker--looks prettier too.
