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... |

I'm back already - found it! YAY!
Bread and Butter Pickles - 7 pints approx.

Combine cucumber and onion in a large bowl, layering with salt; cover with ice cubes. Let stand 1 1/2 hours. Drain; rinse; drain again. Combine remaining ingredients in a large saucepot; bring to a boil. Add drained cucumbers and onions, and return to a boil. Pack hot pickles and liquid into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Remove air bubbles. Adjust two-piece caps. Process 10 minutes in a boiling-water canner.

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~

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 |

Can you omit the onions? Would love to try bread and butter this year, but just not into the onions.

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. |

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.
