Favorite Canned Pickle Recipe?

You could try the old fashioned way and ferment them... just needs salt and seasonings to your taste like dill, garlic, peppers etc.

They are fantastic on hamburgers and hot dogs. They make the best deviled eggs, I mince them up and add some of the syrup to the egg yolks.

Whiskey pickles doesn't sound appealing, but I'm also one to not knock it untill I try it.

I definitely would try it! Gotta get some cukes first....

I did use the above recipe, except for the seasonings.
We went with the pickling spice mix I had from general store.

And then...
I also used recipe to make whiskey pickled jalapeno salsa.


I'll let you know how they turn out. All jars are curing.

Do it quickly. The best pickles are made from freshly picked cukes that are not over-ripe. I can't help you with a "best" recipe. I'm still looking for it. IMO, the Ball book calls for way too much vinegar. I like a good bread and butter pickle with lots of onion.

That sounds so good! DH couldn't have them with all the sugar... But, I know I would love them!

Do you HWB them? I've never heard of pickling lime. Where do you purchase it?

Our local Wal-Mart carries pickling lime in the canning section.
