wuap's pickle recipe

[The_Tick]

Ever tried fried pickles? We were at Cheeseburger in Paradise (Jimmy Buffet's chain) a while back for lunch and were told we had to try them. So we figured what the hell. They were good and Gabers has made a few different versions now. Some with just egg and flour, another with a cold batter (which I think is better). Coming soon, doing some with breading rather than batter. The correct thickness of the slice is pretty key.

I have. And I like them.

Now that the pickles have had a chance to rest comfortably in my pantry for a couple months, I enjoy the flavor much more. They were good before and my family really liked them, but now they are downright tasty!

Thanks again Mac!

De nada. After chomping our way through about 30 quarts so far, we're convinced that freshly-peeled garlic is the only way to go. Even the pre-peeled cloves we bought don't have the same flavor as the ones we peeled and smashed fresh.

Wuap, I made your pickles tonight. They better be good...or else.

Well?

Well?

Good!

[wuapinmon]

Good!

Glad!

It's pickle season again. I'm about to go get cracking on the first batch of the season.

Don't do it guys. Way overrated.

While this is not about Waup's pickle recipe, I sm going to out this here anyways.

As it was a "free Sunday" general conference, I had a chance to hit the farmers market this morning. The first table I saw had a bunch of pickling cucumbers so I picked some up and decided to make some more pickles. I found a pickle recipe on the Bbq-Brethren website that people have been gushing over so I figured I'd give it a go.

Ingredients
• 4-6 medium cucumbers, or 8-10 small pickling cucumbers
• 4 cups water
• 2 cups white vinegar
• 8-12 cloves of garlic
• 6 tablespoons of pickling/canning salt or non-iodized kosher salt
• A few sprigs of fresh dill, or substitute with 2 tablespoons of dill seed
• 1 teaspoon coriander seed
• 1 teaspoon celery seed
• 1 teaspoon mustard seed
• 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
• 2 Hungarian hot wax peppers

Directions

Start by bringing the water to a simmer in a saucepan. While the water is heating, peel the garlic. For a subtle garlic flavor, use 8 cloves (4 in each jar). Use more for a stronger garlic flavor. Leave the cloves whole. Once the water is up to a simmer you can add the garlic and cook for about five minutes. While the garlic is cooking, prepare your cucumbers by slicing into quarters lengthwise for spears, or cut thin chips. After the garlic has cooked for five minutes, add the vinegar and salt and bring to a boil until the salt is dissolved and then remove from the heat.

In two one-quart canning jars (wide-mouth jars work best for this) add the fresh sprigs of dill and remove the garlic from the pan and distribute equally in both jars. Then divide the remaining spices between the two jars. If you want a touch of heat, add one Hungarian hot pepper, halved lengthwise, to each jar. Next, take the cucumbers and pack them tightly into each jar. Bring the brine back up to a boil and pour immediately into both jars, filling very close to the very top so that the cucumbers are completely covered.

Let cool to room temp and then refrigerate overnight. They are really good after sitting overnight, but amazing after another day or two.

I didn't have Hungarian wax peppers but I did have access to jalapeños and habaneros so I used this instead.

I'll break into them tomorrow or Tuesday to see how they turn out.

A former student just messaged me and asked me for our recipe, and I realized that we haven't made them in years because we've been traveling every summer. I'll have to make some the next time I get some pickling cukes.

My youngest has developed a major pickle addiction. I bought a bottle of pickle chips for hamburgers and she are the whole thing in 2 days. She took pickles to lunch in a baggie and are them as snacks.

Might have to try my hand at wuap's recipe.
