Pickle Time!


Used the first batch of pickling cucumbers to make ... well, pickles! What else? We also used our home-grown dill. I'm looking forward to trying lots of recipes in The Complete Book of Year-Round Small-Batch Preserving (x-mas gift from Ayme & Scott!). As the name implies, the recipes are small scale. Since I canned about 10 quarts of pickles that turned out terrible last year, I'm eager to do 3-4 pints of things to find out what I like and what works. For this batch, I used the basic "Favorite Garlic Dills" recipe. I think some Bread & Butters might be next.
