My cucumber harvest failed miserably this year (beetles), so I went by our farmer's market and bought a big bag of beautiful picking cukes. They smelled so good. Since I'm out of my garden onions already, I got onions. And some enormous red and orange peppers. I followed the recipe for Bread-and-Butter pickles in the book "Food in Jars" by Marisa McClellan (a really nice new canning book). They are delicious! Spicy and crunchy with a bit of sweetness.
Kathy,
ReplyDeleteYour bread and butter pickle jars look wonderful. I'm sure looking at them makes you feel so good anticipating enjoying them through the winter months.
Been such a long time since I've made bread and butter pickles, but the memory of the taste is still sweet! Perhaps you have prodded me into including that in my 2016 plan!
