Sweet Sour Pickles
4 c water
2 c. vinegar
4 Tbsp canning salt
This makes a double batch of brine (equals not quite 5 quarts).
Bring to a boil
Dill
Celery (optional)
onion (cut up) or use tiny onions
Pack pickles, dill, onion and celery (optional) in jars slicking pickles the long way (or if you have a lot of small pickles make a few jars up for holidays).
Make sure opening of jars are clean, put lids in hot boiling water.
Pour mixture over pickles, seal then set jars in boiling hot water bath (Boil 25 to 35 minutes). Wait till the pickles change color then take the jars out and sit them on a towel on you kitchen counter for a couple of days.
These are requested at family get gatherings. So I make sure I make up many jars with tiny pickles in them for serving.
These do not taste like Bread and butter pickles.
They are a pickle that one just can eat like candy.
