In reply to Jim. Hi Jim! Yes, drain the liquid from the cucumber mixture and give a quick rinse under cold water.

Great recipe! I really like these. To be honest, back in the days when I did a lot of canning I always stuck to dill pickles. I made a batch for the refrigerator, and I just can’t get enough of them. So much better than store bought ones.

I never knew the reason for their name. Thanks for all the fun information and tips you always include in your posts.

Do I rinse the salt off the slices before I add them to the vinegar mixture?

In reply to Kathryn. try eating them with plain bread covered in butter and you will see! back in the day, fresh churned butter on a biscuit with a jar of pickles was the only snack available.

How much does this recipe make? I want to be sure to have enough jars, but also be able to divide it down if needed. Thx!

would love to try your zesty bread & butter pickles but you don’t mention how long before they are ready to eat or how many jars it makes.

In reply to heidi. Alum used to be quite common in pickling, because it does work. The problem is that it adds a lot of aluminum, which is destructive to many of our bodies systems. People quit using it because it's just not that good for you. Look into it before you use it, it's good to make informed decisions about such things.
