If you go to the Harvest Forum on GW you will find many, many recipes!!! Good luck!

Funny you should ask. I have been dying to share this recipe! My husband and just randomly had an inkling to make pickles a few months ago. We have never canned anything before (except for preserved lemons for Moroccan food). I don't really even eat pickles. But we found some at a farmers market, and randomly chose this recipe out of the blue. I can't believe how yummy they were. They make the *best* hamburger pickles ever! and they made my boring tuna salad amazing.

Congratulations on your crop - next summer when I am in my new house you can tell me how to grow 'em.

Best of luck
PS. Tell us what you try.

How about a nice pickled cucumber salad recipe? I've linked below to the cooking forum on GW where the discussion is what to do with the loads of cukes we all seem to have this year. Quite a few recipes are there, including my own cucumber salad recipe, which takes very much like an Amish cucumber salad.

I'm just about ready to make my next batch!

We have a family recipe somewhere or other. The odd thing I remember is that you put a grape leaf in it, and also a couple of cloves of garlic. I'll have to look up the Harvest forum after I get this kitchen finished!

Thanks folks! I appreciate the input.

When my kids were small and I was telling them where pickles came from, we decided to make some. I didn't look up a recipe; I just put slices in a baggy with white vinegar, sugar and kosher salt. After a few days in the frig, they were delicious, even without any other spices!
