Title: Pickles
Post by: Gobble Doc on September 25, 2017, 07:06:34 PM
I'm into a mult-day task of making sweet chunks. Grannys recipe.  Just got done with first week of brining and soaking.  Cut up cukes tonight and doing another 2 day soak. Should be done a week from now. 3 double batches.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170926/bc99cd1c31111746264c8d45675a0546.jpg)

We made pickles for the first time this year.  Looking forward to making them next year already so we can tweak our recipe a little further, and use grape leaves to keep them crunchier. 

I would love to look at your recipe if you are willing to share.

Weazle,

I can send you the recipe for sure. It's not a lot different than the one at this website. I think the ones I'm doing take a couple weeks when it's all said and done.

A coworker of mine has given me some Armenian cucumber that he grew. They make nice crunchy refrigerator pickles even as slices. I was impressed.

Strangely, they're musk melons instead of cucumbers, but they taste like a mild cucumber when eaten raw.

Add garlic, vinegar, salt to taste and peppers if desired. Turn upside down after several hours.

Looks good.  I had a horrible pickle/ cuke season.  Had to buy some pickles just to make a couple gallons.
