Pickled Cucumbers

  • As many cucumbers as the vinegar will well cover
  • 1/2 gallon vinegar
  • 3 lbs brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsps cloves
  • 2 Tbsps allspice
  • 2 Tbsps mustard
  • 2 Tbsps celery
  • 1 Tbsp white ginger
  • 1 Tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 Tbsp black pepper
  • 2 pods green pepper
  • 4 lemons, sliced
  • A little horseradish
  • 12 onions
  • To green the cucumbers:
  • Grape leaves
  • Weak vinegar
Boil all of the above ingredients together until the cucumbers are tender. This will be ready for use in a week (or a little more).

To green the fruit, line a brass kettle with grape leaves. Pour weak vinegar on the cucumbers. You can weaken the vinegar by adding 2 quarts of water to each quart of vinegar. Cover with grape leaves and boil for a little while.
