EMERIL'S HOMEMADE SWEET AND SPICY PICKLES

Steps:

• Place cucumbers, onions, pickling salt, and water in a large, non-reactive bowl. Cover and allow cucumbers to soak for 2 hours. Drain the water from the onions and cucumbers through a colander and rinse well for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
• Combine the vinegars, sugar, mustard seeds, turmeric, cloves, garlic, and peppers in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and add the cucumbers and onions. Bring to a simmer and remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Fill each of the hot sterilized pint-size preserving jars with the pickle mixture, dividing them evenly, and enough of the liquid to come within 1/2-inch of the top. Add 1/2 teaspoon of Natural Pickle Crisp to each jar, if desired. With a clean damp towel, wipe the rim and fit with a hot lid. Screw on the metal ring just until the point of resistance is met. Process the jars in a hot-water bath for 15 minutes.
• Using tongs, remove the jars, place on a towel, and let cool. Test the seals by allowing the jars to stand at room temperature overnight or until the lids pop. Tighten the rings and store in a cool dry place. Let the pickles age for at least 2 weeks before using.

SWEET AND SPICY DILL PICKLES RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• (This includes directions for processing in a boiling water bath, which is recommended for safe storage. I personally skip this part, but ensure that my jars are fresh from the dishwasher and very hot. I seldom have a jar that does not seal, and only make enough to last the year. But if you are planning on storing your jars for an extended period, a boiling water bath is recommended.) Place jars into dishwasher and run them on a regular cycle. Meanwhile, fill the canner about 1/3 full of water and start heating. Put all the brine ingredients into a large pot and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Bring a small pot of water to a boil and remove from heat; place the jar seals into the hot water and let them sit until you are ready to use them. (I use the Bernardin Snap Seals and lids). When the jars are ready, remove them from the dishwasher one at a time. Place a head of dill, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 slice of jalapeno and 1 tsp. pickling spice into the bottom of the jar. Fill the jar tightly with cucumbers, strategically placing them for maximum fit. Place on top of the cucumbers 2 cloves of garlic, 1 tsp. of pickling spice, 2 slices of jalapeno and lastly one more head of dill. Using a glass measure or a soup ladle, carefully pour the hot brine into the jar to within a couple of millimeters of the top; place the seal and then screw the lid on tightly. Move on to the next jar and repeat until all the jars are full and sealed. Place each jar into the canner- you may need to add more hot water to ensure that all jars are covered by at least one inch of water. Cover canner and bring water to full rolling boil; once the water is boiling process for 15 minutes. When processing time is complete, remove canner lid, wait 5 minutes, then carefully remove jars without tilting and place them upright on a protected work surface. Cool upright, undisturbed for 24 hours, then move them to a cupboard or cool, dark room for storage. The pickles will be ready to eat in 4 weeks, but are even better if you can leave them for 6 weeks. Enjoy!
