Bread and Butter pickles
Brine
6 cups vinegar
5 cups sugar
3 tbls mustard seed
1 1/2 tbls turmeric
1 tsp allspice
vegies
7 cucumbers
2 large onions
2 red peppers
Cut cukes 1/4 inch thick same with onins and peppers,put these in a large bowl and sprinkle with kosher salt as you layer these. I use about a 1/4 cup of salt...then cover with ice and let set in the refer for at least 3hrs.After they have set rinse and drain well..have your brine made up and boil for 10 minutes,dump your pickles and onions and peppers into brine and let it come back to a boil,then fill your jars and water bath for 10 minutes,,
I do this same recipe and use fresh Jalapeno peppers instead of cukes,wow what a killer relish Enjoy
