OLD FASHIONED SWEET NINE DAY PICKLES



Old Fashioned Sweet Nine Day Pickles image

Love these Sweet Pickles, one of the best sweet pickle recipes in my collection and one of the best I have ever tasted. This is one of those old old recipes shared by a lady that made really great pickles. Very easily made and not as time consuming as it sounds. While modern safety method requirements may call for processing I don't process my pickles as I find it changes the taste and texture, you may do so if you wish. As with many of the old recipes some things just do not enter well ... with this one it's you have to be making up enough of each of the brine solutions to completely cover! NOTE be sure to use non - reactive containers ( stainless steel - unchipped enamel/porcelain, assure all your plastic bowls and containers are food grade)

Time P9DT45m

Yield 4 quarts, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 quarts cucumbers, cut in 1/2 inch pieces
2 cups pickling salt
16 cups water
4 quarts water
1 cup vinegar
2 cups water
1 teaspoon alum
2 cups vinegar
2 cups water
8 cups sugar
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 tablespoon pickling spices, tied in a bag

Steps:

  • STEP ONE: Cut cucumbers in 1/2 inch pieces or a little larger and place in a crock or large glass container. Bring the soaking brine to a boil, pour over cut cucumbers, cover with a clean cloth and weigh down with a plate. Cover crock with a clean tea towel.
  • Let stand three days.
  • STEP TWO: Drain, put back in crock and cover with fresh water. There is no salt added to this.
  • Let stand two days.
  • STEP THREE: Drain and place back in crock.
  • Bring the pickle solution with the alum to a boil and simmer two minutes pour over.
  • Stand overnight.
  • STEP FOUR: Drain and place back in crock. Make Sweet Pickle brine, bring to a boil and pour over. For three days drain this syrup into a large pot and bring to a boil. Pour back over the cucumber slices. The third day once again bring the syrup to a boil. Put pickles into sterilized jars, pour hot brine over and seal.
  • I often replace some of the cucumber pieces with cauliflower chunks, making for a mixed sweet pickle.
  • Makes about eight pints.

BLUE RIBBON DILL PICKLES



Blue Ribbon Dill Pickles image

A good friend gave me this recipe many years ago after I munched down nearly a quart while visiting! I threw out ALL my other dill pickle recipes because THIS ONE is the best. Several years ago, it occurred to me to enter my pickles in the County Fair. So I did. Since I'm superintendent over in the Junior Foods & Nutrition Department, I don't get to watch the Open Class judging. So later in the day (after judging in both classes was over), I went to see how my pickles (and other canned goods) fared [pun intended!]. I couldn't find my jar of pickles. They weren't on any of the shelves, neither were they in with the "disqualified" items. Hmmm. Then I spied them! Not only did they have a big blue ribbon on them, but they also received Best of Show AND the canning award! What a thrill!!! There's nothing like winning at the fair--amongst all those good cooks--to feel validated as a successful home-canner. NOTE: I did NOT list an amount for the cucumbers since I've never measured how many pounds I use--sorry! SERVING SIZE is the number of ounces in a quart jar--to facilitate nutritional information.

Time 1h30m

Yield 7 quart jars, 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 wide-mouth quart jars, lids & rings
fresh dill, heads & several inches of stems shaken free of bugs
cucumber, washed, scrubbed
1 garlic clove (or more)
8 1/2 cups water
2 1/4 cups white vinegar
1/2 cup pickling salt

Steps:

  • GET ALL OF THIS GOING BEFORE FILLING THE JARS.
  • Wash 7 quart jars in hot, soapy water (or dishwasher), rinse and fill with hot water; set aside.
  • Fill canning kettle half-full with hottest tap water; set on burner over high heat.
  • In a medium saucepan, fit lids and rings together, cover with water, bring to a simmer.
  • In a large saucepan, bring water, vinegar and salt to boil; turn off the heat; set aside.
  • FILL JARS: place a layer of dill at the bottom of each jar, along with one garlic clove (if used), then TIGHTLY load the cukes into the jar to the NECK of the jar (depending on size you may get two nice layers with a few small cukes in the top--)---squeeze cukes into the jar tightly--uniform size helps; add a few TINY spriglets of dill at the top, too, and another garlic clove if desired.
  • Once jars are loaded, pour in the brine leaving half-inch head space in each jar.
  • Add lid and ring to each jar, tightening evenly.
  • Place jars into canner with water JUST to the necks of the jars.
  • Bring water ALMOST to a boil (about 15 minutes--depending on how fast it heats up).
  • Remove jars, set on a dish towel on the kitchen counter, cover with another dish towel & let cool.
  • Check for seal (indented lid), label jars or lids, store in cool dark cellar or cupboard.
  • NOTES: When washing/scrubbing cukes, sort them into piles by size. This really helps make your jars look nicer, if you have uniform sizes (and this impresses the judges too!). And makes for easier packing, too.
