Ingredients

  • a gallon of water

Directions

1

In making brine, use a heaping pint of coarse salt to a gallon of water. Keep the cucumbers well under, and test frequently. They should be of a pleasant saltness.

2

Use the best cider vinegar, unless the recipe calls for white wine vinegar. As heating weakens it, vinegar should be very strong, and should only be brought to boiling point and immediately used.
