Easy Bread and Butter Pickles Recipe

Ingredients

• 25 cucumbers, thinly sliced
• 6 onions, thinly sliced
• 2 green bell peppers, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 0.5 cup salt
• 5 cups white sugar
• 3 cups cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons mustard seed
• 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
• 1.5 teaspoons celery seed
• 0.5 teaspoon whole cloves

Instructions

1. Combine sliced cucumbers, onions, green bell peppers, minced garlic, and salt in a large bowl. Let the mixture sit for about 3 hours to draw out excess moisture.
2. In a large saucepan, whisk together sugar, cider vinegar, mustard seed, turmeric, celery seed, and whole cloves. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring occasionally.
3. Drain any accumulated liquid from the cucumber mixture thoroughly. Gently fold the cucumbers into the boiling vinegar mixture. Remove the saucepan from the heat just before the mixture returns to a boil.
4. Carefully transfer the hot pickles into sterilized jars with screw-top lids, leaving appropriate headspace. Seal the jars tightly and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve for optimal flavor.
5. Enjoy your homemade bread and butter pickles as a tasty snack or condiment!
