3 Day Sun Pickles Food

3 DAY SUN PICKLES RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix water, pickling salt and vinegar in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil and boil for five minutes.
• Set to the side and cool for about 5 minutes, or until luke warm.
• In a large gallon sized jar, place dill, cut onion, peeled garlic and cucumbers. Place cucumber last, and fill the jar.
• Pour warm mixture into the jar and put the lid on.
• Set jar outside in the sun for 3 days.
• After three days, open the jar and test a pickle. If it is to your liking, place the jar in the fridge. This will keep the pickles crunchy.

3 DAY SWEET PICKLES

Steps:

• Day 1-3 - Soak pickles in water and salt for 3 days.
• Day 3 - Drain and rinse pickles. Mix 2 cups of vinegar to 1 cup water. Pour over pickles. Bring to boil. Put in jars.
• Mix 3 cups of sugar, 2 cups of vinegar and ½ tsp allspice. Heat. Pour over top of pickles and add a pinch of alum to each jar. Seal.

SUNSHINE DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• In a gallon glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, place a layer of dill in the bottom, then a layer of cukes; add garlic cloves if desired.
• Keep layering dill & cukes to the neck of the jar; finish with a layer of dill.
• Add vinegar and salt to the top of the jar; fill with cold tap water.
• Cover and screw on tightly (add a doubled over square of wax paper or plastic wrap if you like, too).
• Give the jar a few good shakes to distribute the salt.
• Set in a sunny spot outside for four days; mark the calendar with the "due date."
• Turn the jar slightly each day (for an even tan); leave out an extra day if rainy or cloudy.
• Chill and eat.
• IDEA: Add green or red pepper slices along with the dill for a taste explosion!
• SUGGESTION: When scrubbing the fresh cukes, sort-as-you-go into piles of uniform size. This makes filling the jar go much quicker--looks prettier too.

SUN KOSHER TYPE DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• Wash and slice cucumbers about 1/4 inch thick and place loosely into a quart canning jar. Don't pack them tight. Peel and slice your clove of garlic, too.
• Place the garlic, dill, salt, and vinegar into the jar with the cucumbers. If you're using the alum, put it into the jar now, too.
• Fill the jar to about 1/2 inch from the top with clean cool water. If your water at home is rusty or irony, use bottled water.
• Place a new canning flat lid on top, making sure that the rim of the jar is clean and no salt or dill is between the jar and the lid. Seal tight by hand.
• Shake the jar vigorously until the salt is dissolved.
• Write the date one week from the date you're making these on top of the lid with a magic marker.
• Place the jar in a sunny place and shake the jar once a day. When the date you wrote on the lid is reached, the pickles are ready.
