Pickles are everywhere! I've been making batch after batch. Last year I only had enough cucumbers to make half a recipe of Bread and Butter pickles. This year I planted plenty cucumber plants to make sure I had enough and they are going crazy!! I have sooo many little pickling cucumbers. But finally the plants are beginning to give out.
I don't like dill pickles, so I don't make those, just sweet ones. I make a Bread and Butter pickle recipe that was my husband's mother's, and a Virginia Sweet recipe from my mom. They both make old fashioned sweet, crunchy pickles. I haven't actually counted, but I have quite a few dozen pint and quart jars in the cupboard. Tomorrow I plan to make a double batch of Bread and Butter and slice and make the syrup for my last batch of Virginia Sweets. I think I'm about pickled out...
I also have pickled Golden Beets in the refrigerator, but that's another post. :)
