You must have the day off.

Have you ever pickled cukes? I am trying a batch of Clausen style, cold process, to see if I can do it! It is the only type of pickle I like. They have been in the jar for 3 days now and producing some nice small bubbles. I used some distilled water, a heaping tablespoon of Ball Kosher Dill pickling mix, some garlic and pepper corns. I think I will wait another day or two and then add some vinegar and let them pickle in the frig.

Nah! Had Weds off but I’m stuck doing paperwork so I’m sneaking in some desserts along with the ho-hum!

Never tried pickling anything but okra. One of my customers brings me bread and butter pickles-my favorite. My crowd doesn’t like them so I ahve them all to myself. Tehy are truly wonderful in potato salad!
