Chunk Pickle Recipes Post By Lynette from Missouri (Guest Post) (07/04/2007) I am desperately looking for a chunk pickle recipe that we lost in a move. It has cinnamon (not sticks), sugar, vinegar and I remember cutting in big chunks. No food coloring either. This is a recipe my husbands mom used and made just for him. Any help would be appreciated. RE: Pickle Recipes Post By Janis in Michigan (Guest Post) (09/23/2005) I am looking for a green pepper pickle called Slippery Jack Pickles. It also has cucumbers and onions and are sweet. RE: Pickle Recipes Post by melody_yesterday (215) | (10/06/2004) Blog! | Contact My son likes the baby pickled corn - but it's kinda high - so I thought I'd pull one over on him & got a can of plain baby corn from the ethnic isle at the store & put them in the pickling in the same jar - it sat a few days (good thing - it's better that way!) & when he got them out & tried them he didn't realize or seem to - the difference ! I've seen my spouse make pickled eggs & also he cuts wieners up & pickles them too ! I don't have the recipie - sorry & I like pickled garlic -- but I have never made any of it - so a "how to" would be apprieciated on any of the above !

Let it stand for a day, then wash again and place in a marinade made of 1 cup rice vinegar, 7 Tbs. water, and 2 1/2 tsp. Sugar. Allow the ginger to marinate for 1 week. It will turn pink. Drained, covered and refrigerated. It will keep for months. It is sliced thin to be served with sushi. I've tried and it works pretty well.

Bring to the boil and simmer for five minutes - no longer, otherwise the vinegar will evaporate. Take the saucepan off the heat and leave it, covered, to cool down. (I leave it overnight.) Peel the onions and place them in a colander, sprinkling each layer generously with salt. Leave them overnight - stand the colander in the sink so that the water and salt can drain away. Strain the vinegar to remove the spices. Pack the drained onions into clean jars and pour in enough of the spiced vinegar to cover them. You can put one or two of the chilis in the jar with the onions if you like them VERY fiery! Seal and label the jars of onions. Put any remaining vinegar into a sealed bottle and keep it for making chutney or for the next batch of onions! Store the jars of onions in a cool dark place and DO NOT EAT UNTIL CHRISTMAS! (Or for at least four weeks.) I haven't given any quantities for the ingredients, because it depends on how fiery/spicy you like your pickles and how big your batch of onions is. As a guide, for two litres of vinegar I'd use about two inches of ginger, thirty or so peppercorns, two tablespoons of coriander seeds, six or seven cloves, five or six small nuclear-power chilis, two tablespoons of mustard seeds... you can also pickle onions without the spices, but you must still boil the vinegar otherwise the pickle will go off. You can use hot vinegar to pickle onions, but this makes the onions go soft. I prefer them pickled cold and crisp! - Russ RE: Pickle Recipes Post by ThriftyFun (3951) | (08/11/2001) Profile | Blog! | Contact Festive Cinnamon Pickle Rings Peel 15 large cucumbers (a good way to use up those that are large and seedy). Slice 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick and remove seeds. A spoon works well for this step. Place cucumber slices in a crock. Mix together 8 1/2 quarts of water and 2 cups of pickling lime. Pour over cucumbers to cover. Let set for 24 hours. Drain and wash in cold water. Cover with fresh cold water and let stand for 3 hours. Drain. Place in large pan and add 1 cup vinegar, 3 cups water, 1 Tablespoon alum and 1 bottle red or green food coloring. Heat and simmer for two hours.Do not let them boil. If they reach the boiling point, lower the heat until the bubbles almost stop. Drain and return to the crock. Mix together and bring to a boil: 2 cups vinegar, 2 cups water, 10 cups sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of oil of cinnamon. When mixture is boiling, pour over rings in the crock. Cover and let stand for 24 hours. Drain syrup into pan and reheat to boiling. Pour back over rings and cover. Repeat for 3 more days. On the last day, while your syrup is reheating, place the pickle rings into sterilized jars. When syrup is boiling, pour over pickles in jars and seal. This is a delicious pretty pickle for the Christmas holidays or for any meal. And even people who don't like pickles will like these. They are very crisp and crunchy. - Harlean from Arkansas Quick Refrigerator Cucumber Chips Post by ThriftyFun (3951) | (08/10/2001) Profile | Blog! | Contact I keep these in my refrigerator all the time. We love them. 2 regular cucumbers 1 large bell pepper (red optional), seeded and cut into 1/2 inch-wide strips 1 medium-size onion, thinly sliced 1 tablespoon salt 2 teaspoons dill seeds 3/4 cup sugar (for diabetics, use 3/4 cup splenda) 1/2 cup white wine vinegar Wash cucumbers well, but do not peel.
