#2) Bread and Butter Pickles

.
4 quarts sliced cucumbers
6 sliced onions
2 chopped green peppers
3 cloves garlic
1/3 cup coarse-medium salt
5 cups sugar
3 cups cider vinegar
1 1/2 t. tumeric
1 1/2 t. celery seed
2 T. mustard seed

Slice cucumbers thin and place in a large kettle or container. Add the onion, green peppers and whole garlic. To this mixture add the salt. Cover with ice and mix well. ( I use my hands.) Let stand 3 hours then drain well. Combine the remaining ingredients ; pour over the cucumber mixture. Heat just to a boil. Seal in hot, sterilized jars. Makes 8 pints.

This is one of the easiest and most delicious canning recipes that I know of. AN OLD FAMILY RECIPE
