I wanted to make some pickles this year. I have been looking for pickling cucumbers for a couple of weeks without success. I even put my name on a waiting list at one of the fruit stands. Seriously, everyone wants them and there are not enough cucumbers to go around. A lady who works at the fruit stand told me that there are not that many cucumbers coming in because it is not a good money making crop. I almost gave up on it but today I decided to check out one more place and behold there they were: pickling cucumbers! I got so excited I bought 20 lb of them. I think I got a little carried away... I hope my family likes pickles.
Pickling spice, dill, dried red peppers(not pictured), and garlic. I am not going to share the recipe to avoid copyright issues and what not, and I'm too lazy to do it. But I got my recipe from the Ball Canning book.
Filling the jars, I just need to add the liquid and it will be ready to process.
I hope it tastes as good as it looks.
