I had outstanding Bread & Butter Pickles at a July 4th BBQ that were so good that it inspired me to make my own. Typically I’m a Kosher Dill Gal, but these little sweeties are enough to make one switch sides.  

  • 4 Quarts Sliced Cucumbers
  • 8 Sliced Small Onions
  • 1/2 Cup Kosher Salt
  • 5 Cups Sugar
  • 5 Cups Cider Vinegar
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cloves
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoons Turmeric
  • 2 Teaspoons Mustard Seed
  • 1 Tablespoon Celery Seed
  1. Sprinkle cucumbers and onions with kosher salt. Cover with ice cubes and let stand for 3 hours. Combine sugar, vinegar, and spices in large kettle. Bring to a boil over a high heat.
  2. Drain cucumbers and onions and add to sugar mixture. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
  3. Pack into hot canning jars immediately. Process pints for 5 minutes or quarts for 10 minutes in hot water bath.
  4. Remove and let cool completely. Do not disturb while cooling. Refrigerate any jars that did not seal.
  5. Makes about 8 pints.
