DIRECTIONS
This recipe's Ingredients were scaled to yield a new amount.
The directions below still refer to the original recipe yield of
8 - 1 quart jars.
In a large bowl, mix together cucumbers, onions, green bell peppers,
garlic and salt. Allow to stand approximately 3 hours.
NOTE: I did not use garlic or green peppers. I set it overnight in
the refrigerator, with a weight on top similar to the Danish cucumbers.
In a large saucepan* mix the cider vinegar, white sugar, mustard seed,
celery seed, whole cloves and turmeric. Bring to a boil.
Drain liquid from the cucumber mixture. Stir the cucumber mixture into
the boiling vinegar mixture. Remove from heat shortly before the
combined mixtures return to boil.
Transfer to sterile containers. Seal and chill in the refrigerator
until serving.
* Do NOT to use a metal pan to boil the vinegar mix.
