Sour Dill Pickles

 

Sour Dill Pickles at Miz Helen's Country Cottage
We have had a great canning season this year. Our cucumbers came on early so it allowed us to make pickles before the heat of the summer set in. This pickle recipe is a combination of a sour and dill pickle, and have been developed through my years of canning. We are a pickle loving family so we love the different flavors that can come from a simple jar of pickles.

I started canning with my mother and Grandmother when I had to stand on a chair to reach the cabinet. Canning and preserving food is a way of life for our family and I am so happy to share this art with you. Hope you have a fantastic week and come back to see us real soon!
Peace and Joy

  3. These look so good. I'm curious though - why do you do a salt water bath first? Thanks for sharing at the What's for dinner party. Hope your week was amazing.
