Bread + Butter Pickles

The picnic staple. Anyone else home with a toddler and finding themselves on many a picnic? 

Just me? Well, these little pickles are the perfect pick me up while playing in the park! 

It also helps that I have very generous neighbors with bountiful gardens!

What You’ll Need:

-1 pound cucumbers, thinly sliced (if you still need a mandoline, here’s a great one!)

-1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced

-1 cup apple cider vinegar

-1/4 cup water

-3/4 cup sugar

-1 tablespoon salt

-1 teaspoon country dijon mustard

-1/2 teaspoon turmeric

-1 teaspoon mustard seeds

Method:

Place cucumbers and onions in 2 pint sized jars.

Bring vinegar, water, sugar, salt, mustard, turmeric, and mustard seeds to a boil over medium heat and whisk until sugar and salt dissolve. Let cool to warm.

Pour brine over cucumbers and refrigerate at least 2 days to marry flavors.

Keep in the fridge for two months!
