Project of the Day: Bread and Butter Pickles

It's the busy season for me now, so I think I'll post daily projects as I'm able.  

Yesterday's project was taking care of some of the piles of cucumbers produced by my garden.

I LOVE bread and butter pickles.  I like to use the recipes from the Ball Home Preserving book because I know the recipes have been well tested and, if directions are followed, are safe to consume. 

Yummy recipe.

Spice mix.

Cucumbers and onions draining.

The finished product!

I like to work in small batches so that I'm not slaving over the stove ALL day!
