Pickle Making with Dawn




My friend, Dawn, has been inundated with cucumbers this year and in her search for a good pickle recipe, came over to my place to get some help. I am still searching for the perfect one, myself, but have several that work for now. I don't intend to stop looking, though, until we've found one everyone loves. It won't happen this year. My cukes are doing wonderfully, and are supposed to be specifically for pickling, but I am finding they do not hold up well to standard pickling processes. We are going to try a refrigerator pickle next and see if it is the heat that is making them limp. In the meantime, I still love practicing!
