---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.04 Title: Kosher Style Dill Pickles (WVHV17A) Categories: Pickles Yield: 1 Batch sm Cucumbers Garlic Celery Green peppers; cut in strips Dill Brine: 1 c Salt 2 qt Water 1 qt White vinegar Pack cucumbers in 1 qt jars. To each jar add 1 clove garlic, 1 celery rib, cut up, 4 to 5 green pepper strips, dill to taste. I use 1 to 2 heads of dill. Make brine of water, vinegar, and salt. Boil with several heads of dill for 5 minutes. Add this additional dill to jars. Pour hot brine over pickles in jars. Seal at once. Ready in 4 to 6 weeks. Hint: Keep the brine boiling the whole time you are filling and sealing to be sure the jars seal. I have also set the packed jars down in hot water before I add the brine. The only problem I have had is the jars not all sealing. Be sure the mouths are completely clean of any salt brine. If there is a problem you can also do a hot water bath for about 10 minutes. This will seal them for sure. -----
