    I found a lot of success with crunchy pickles after learning that the blossom end of the cucumber has an enzyme that makes them break down and get mushy. This year I cut off the blossom end of each of the cukes before I pickled them and didn’t lose any to mushyness! Give it a try on a future batch and see if it works for you! Love your videos!

    I appreciate you and your family sharing this with us.... I grew up helping my granny with all things like this. She was a folk dr...she made her own medicines...delivered babies...doctored the locals with payment of produce and livestock...we rarely ever went to the grocery store for anything...I love these old school ways

    My aunt has made these for years. She adds green food coloring and here in West Tennessee, we call them Christmas pickles. She always cautioned me to keep the juice even after the pickles are gone. The juice adds lots of flavor to any kind of tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. and deviled eggs and potato salad. They are wonderful. If anyone gives you a jar, it’s because they love you. 😉

    My German Grammaw would make this kind of pickles pretty much the same way. It never crossed my mind how many steps it took to make a product that I simply opened and enjoyed. I sure do miss her and wish she was here to see you bring back the old ways. Thank you for sharing and thank you for bringing us all together once again to Celebrate Appalachia.

    This lady has quickly become my favorite. The family history is a wonderful tradition to protect. Mom and dad and the 2 daughters are all fun characters. Everything from their garden and the kitchen is immaculately clean as if new. Enjoyable to watch. 👍😇❤️

    I had a great friend who helped me learn to can pickles. As I watched you go thru this recipe for 14 day pickles, I recalled that she would even use the extra large cubes. She peeled them, cleaned the seeds out leaving a large round hole, used the candied red hots , food coloring and laid them easily into jars. They were beautiful in the jars and tasted just like apples! She always brought them out at the holidays…an extra special treat!😊

    I used to make these, years ago when I had a garden. My recipe called them “Company Best Pickles.” My mouth has been watering through your entire vlog!

    I found my Mom's recipe after she passed away. We thought it was lost. I was going through some of her cookbooks and kitchen notes. It was on a piece of notebook paper, very worn, in her beautiful handwriting. Treasured.

    My oldest Son LOVES pickles. I am a homeschool Momma so I'm going to do this with him as a school project and he can reap the rewards of his work. I'm so excited. Thank you So much for sharing!!!

    You brought back such a precious memory for me! I remember coming into Grandma's farm kitchen in mid-summer and seeing the massive crock sitting in the corner. "Now you youngins' leave that alone!" Grandma had 9 children and 36 grandchildren and she managed to protect the goods from us all. THEN she would send a pint jar home around Thanksgiving time. Your camera shot of the finished product open up my taste buds memory! Yes, I also let my own pickles set on the shelf in the basement until fall before opening them. I never tried the 14-day pickles though. I appreciate what Grandma did more now than ever. Thank you! Corrie Just made it all more real.
