Refrigerator Bread and Butter Pickles image

This recipe always reminds me of Sunday dinner at my grandmother's house. It was always a huge spread and there were always bread and butter pickles on the table. She made them the old fashion way. I don't have the time for that and finally tweaked a refrigerator version to taste like hers. I hope you enjoy them.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb pickling cucumbers, sliced
1/2 onion, sliced
1 c water
1 c apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 c sugar
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp whole mustard seeds
1/2 tsp tumeric
1/2 tsp celery seeds
1/2 tsp pickling spice

Steps:

  • 1. Pack the onion and cucumber slices into 2, one quart jars. It'll probably take between 1 1/2 and 2 pounds of cucumbers. Be sure to pack them, not just loosely place them in the jars.
  • 2. Note: I usually do one jar per the recipe and add 1/2 of a sliced jalapeno pepper to the other to satisfy the heat lovers here
  • 3. Combine the rest of the ingredients in a non-reactive pan.
  • 4. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes.
  • 5. Immediately pour over the cucumbers dividing between the two jars. Be sure the cucumbers are covered, if you need to top it off with a little water it's OK.
  • 6. Store in the refrigerator. It's best if you wait a week, if you can, before eating. Will keep up to 2 months.
  • 7. Note: while waiting for them to cure I usually shake them occasionally
