                Posted - Aug 11 2012 : 6:24:25 PM Does anyone have a recipe for Bread N Butter Pickles?  I was at the Worlds Longest Yard Sale and bought a jar and they were wonderful.  I made some using my Mammaws recipe a few years ago but, can't locate the recipe...  |

                Posted - Aug 21 2012 : 06:35:23 AM You are welcome. Last year we had a bumper crop of cucumbers. I canned 4 types of pickles and some relish.  We had a pickle party to try them all.

                Posted - Aug 20 2012 : 10:10:14 AM Those B&B pickles look soooo good! I'm making mine today. I use a recipe from Putting Food Buy I've used this book for canning for 40 yrs. Have given two away. Think I will see if there is an updated version that would probably have the newer recipes for things like salsa. Anyway, their B&B recipe is so good I can hardly keep it on the shelf. End up giving a lot of it away once people taste them. Also, will pickle banana peppers today for Son-in-law. Canned tomatoes and juice this morning.

                Posted - Aug 19 2012 : 3:54:35 PM I made mine and they look good.  I can't wait to try them.  I think I will add more cucumbers next time it seemed like I had more onions than cucumbers.  I saw a salsa recipe on here that I am going to try next. |

                Posted - Aug 14 2012 : 11:38:28 AM Roxanna, I always use yellow squash &/or zuchinni pickles with a bread&butter recipe.  The only difference is to let the veggies sit for one hour, instead of 1 1/2 -2 hours.  I also put  bell peppers in my "squash pickles", along with the onions.  My family thinks these are better than cucumber bread&butter pickles. Beth |

                Posted - Aug 14 2012 : 06:33:44 AM Kristina,  Thanks for your Bread and Butter Pickles recipe. I tried it last night.  I thought I might have cut up too many onions and not enough cucumbers and I was low on the juice to fill my jars to I had to top the one off with water.  Can't wait to try them~

                Posted - Aug 12 2012 : 10:27:00 AM I'm so sorry.... I can't find it.  I must have used a library book and forgot to write it down.  We made 4 different types of pickles last year and had a pickle party.  I should look at my blog and see if I wrote it there.

                Posted - Aug 12 2012 : 05:09:25 AM I think I used the one that comes in the Ball canning book.  They turned out very good.
  I just checked their site on-line, and the only recipe they show is one with a packet mix.  I'll look mine up and post it later.
