Love these, I added cauliflower and carrots. could probably add just about what you want. the green beans sound like they would be wonderful in it as well.
Great Recipe! As far as the shelf life goes mine kept for about a month! But you can process in a water bath, until outside water reboils, about 10 to 15, cool then put away, for 6 weeks if you can wait that long! You can also drop an 8th of tsp alum to the bottom of jar, before other ingredients, for crisp!
i put the cukes and onions in 4 pint jars, so I had to double the brine. Very easy to make.
I’ve had these up to about 9 months! Just starting to lose their crunch. I make several gallon every year
With an abundance of cucumbers, I looked for an easy pickle recipe and found this. We tasted them the next day and loved them. This is a recipe going into my regular recipe box!! I didn't have celery seed or mustard seed, so used pickling spice instead, and a pinch of dill. I had to double the liquid part in order to fill the jars.
Love these savory sweet pickles! I’ve been making them since the recipe was first published. My garden produces many cucumbers every year and this is my family’s favorite way to eat them!
Great recipe. I had five cups of cucumbers. Used 2 cups vinegar and 2 of sugar. Didn’t have turmeric. Still short on liquid. Used stone to stuff cukes into two quarter jars. Poured in liquid. Then turned upside down. The liquid is now at the top of the jar. Those are the ones we’ll eat first and simply turn the jar upside down until the cukes and liquid are equal and then I’ll set the jars upside like they belong.
how long will they last in the refrigerator
