BEST EVER SWEET PICKLES

I pack away homegrown cucumbers every summer. This recipe is based on the pickled veggies in Brown Eggs and Jam Jars by Aimee Wimbush-Bourque, but I've made it less mustardy and more garlicky to fit my family's tastes. This method keeps them incredibly, refreshingly crunchy. -Ellie Martin Cliffe, Taste of Home Digital Deputy Editor

EMERIL'S HOMEMADE SWEET AND SPICY PICKLES



Emeril's Homemade Sweet and Spicy Pickles image

NOTE: When selecting cucumbers for pickling, there are a few things to remember. For crisp pickles, choose ripe, pickling cucumbers, which are shorter and chunkier than regular eating cucumbers, which tend to be longer and smoother. Ripe pickling cucumbers are darker green, firm, and not "bloated." They should have plenty of spiny bumps on the outer surface. Overripe cucumbers make mushy pickles. They tend to have yellow or white streaks or spots and their surfaces are smoother. Choose pickles that have not been coated in wax, as the pickling brine cannot penetrate through the wax. The fresher the cucumbers, the crisper the pickles will be. For best results, try picking your own cucumbers from a local farm or farmers' market.

Time P14DT2h55m

Yield 4 pints

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 pounds pickling cucumbers, sliced into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 cups sliced onions
1/2 cup pickling salt
6 cups water
3 cups white vinegar
1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
3 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
4 whole cloves
10 tablespoons roughly chopped garlic
24 dried cayenne peppers
2 teaspoons 100 percent Natural Pickle Crisp, optional

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.

GRANDPA ROWAND'S CANADIAN PICKLES (SWEET)



Grandpa Rowand's Canadian Pickles (Sweet) image

I grew up on these pickles being made once a year. Being canned, these pickles take two weeks to make but are so worth it. After my grandfather died in 1996, there were enough pickles canned to last two more years. After that, there weren't made any more. My grandmother said she had lost the recipe and even if she had it there was no one to help her make them anymore. Going through her recipe book, what did I find? It was my grandfather's recipe! I'm proud to be able to share it with you. If you like sweet pickles, you're going to just die when you taste these.

Time P14D

Yield 12 pint jars, 100 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 gallons cucumbers, sliced paper thin
1 pint salt
1 gallon boiling water
1 1/2 tablespoons alum
1 gallon boiling water
5 lbs sugar
1 pint water
1 quart vinegar
1 teaspoon cinnamon oil
1 1/2 teaspoons clove oil

Steps:

  • Mix cucumbers, salt and boiling water; let sit on your stove covered for 1 week and then drain.
  • Pour on 1 gallon of boiling water; let stand 24 hours and then drain.
  • Add alum and 1 gallon boiling water; let sit 24 hours and then drain.
  • Mix together sugar, 1 pint water, vinegar, cinnamon oil, and clove oil . Bring to a boil and pour over cucumbers. Let sit 24 hours and then drain, retaining juices. Let sit 24 hours.
  • Reheat juices and pour over cucumbers again. Let sit 1 hour and then drain retaining juices. Repeat this step for 4 days, letting cucumbers sit on counter top. Do not refrigerate them.
  • After the 2 week process is done, place pickles in whatever size caning jars you have on hand and re boil the retained juice to pour in the jars on top of pickles. This will give you enough heat to seal the jars perfectly.
  • Put the extra in the pantry and refrigerate a 1 jar. When they are cold they will be ready to eat (unless you like warm pickles then dig right into them).
