Refrigerator Bread and Butter Pickles
Ingredients
Pickling cucumbers or small Zucchinis to fill a gallon jar3 onions sliced
4 cups sugar
4 cups vinegar
1/3 cup plain salt
1 1/2 tsp each turmeric, mustard seed and celery seed
Instructions
Combine sugar and vinegar in small saucepan over low heat to dissolve sugar. Add spices. Pack sliced cucumbers or zucchini and onions in jar very tight, add liquid and spices, seal and refrigerate.These bread and butter pickles are a wonderful little side dish to set out with just about any meal, but our first love will always be adding them to sandwiches.
MY NOTES
Note: The refrigerator pickles don't need to marinate very long at all before they're ready to eat, usually just 24 hours or so. As to how long they keep ... I'd say "the same as any other pickles in your refrigerator." They might become more mushy than crisp if you had them in the frig for a year, but I've never known them to go bad.
