Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe Canning and Preserves

March 21, 2015 By: Terri31 Comments

This is an old recipe that I wanted to get up on my site so I can save it. I try to post several recipes each weekend for those of you who like to try your hand in the kitchen. I’m anything but an expert but I do like to share recipes that turn out perfectly.

I do a lot of canning and preserving in the summer months and although I don’t plan to plant cucumbers this year, I’ll be able to stock up on them at the Farmer’s Market so I can make my yearly pickles.

Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe Canning and Preserves

Big huge thanks to Cathy A. Beavers, of Beavers Bros. Farm, for her instructions, the recipe and for finding pickling lime which we spent hours traveling trying to find ourselves, with no luck.

So…

The recipe:

Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles
7 pounds sliced cucumbers
2 gallons water
2 cups pickling lime
9 cups sugar
2 quarts vinegar
3 T pickling spice

Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe

Dissolve lime in water and put in cucumbers.
Let stand in lime 24 hours. Stir occasionally.

Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles Recipe

Take cucumbers out and soak in clear water for 4 hours, changing water every hour.

Bring sugar, vinegar and spices to boil. Take cucumbers out of water and pour vinegar, sugar and spice mixture over cucumbers. Let stand overnight.
*I did not have any cheesecloth to put the spices in.

Next morning let cook 1 hour.

When I empty the lime water, I start a new batch.

    March 23, 2015 at 9:07 am

    Ha ha ha, I giggled at that and just spewed my coffee everywhere. I don’t think my BB has realized that yet and I’m not telling her lol. She doesn’t like cucumbers… hee hee.

    Man I seriously had no idea how these were made! This may sound naive of me, but I also only recently found out that pickles were made from cucumbers !!!!!

    I’ve never pickled anything in my life, but I like eating them. I love the smaller cucumber, gherkins. They’re not so popular here, but pickled eggs are, which people sometimes put on rice porridge but usually just boiled eggs.

  28. Sam says

    March 23, 2015 at 1:25 am

    That looks lovely! I love some crisp pickled cucumbers. I usually prefer dill, but these also look fabulous! Yum…

    March 23, 2015 at 1:08 am

    Those pickles look so good. My favorite are dill pickles.

    Those Cucumber Crisp Sweet Pickles look seriously good! I also love canning and preserving food for later. I’m so happy it’s finally spring because that means I can start going to my favorite weekly farmer’s market again soon <3

    Exit Timeshare With Me

    If you purchased a timeshare for your family that you’re no longer interested in owning, it’d be a good idea to get rid of it to stop the yearly fees. Timeshare exit companies like Timeshare Exit Team have a great track record of canceling timeshares. Learn how to get out of a timeshare without paying up-front fees.

    Timeshares can be a great idea for families that know how to use them, but at some point, many just want to get rid of them to stop the fees. When shopping for a timeshare exit company, make sure to look for those that offer no upfront fees. Two timeshare cancellation companies that offer trustworthy service are Lonestar Transfer and Wesley Financial Group.
