Society Chip Pickles

These pickles take 8 days from start to finish, but they’re well worth the time.

The recipe may be doubled to accommodate a large batch of cucumbers. Just be sure to have enough brine to cover whatever amount you have.

Wash whole cucumbers and put in a deep roasting pan or stock pot.

Pour boiling water over to cover for 4 mornings.

On the 5th day, drain cucumbers and slice 1″ thick.

Put spices in a cloth bag.

Bring brine/syrup ingredients to a boil and pour over slices.

Repeat for 2 days.

On 8th day, put pickles in prepared canning jars and pour boiling brine/syrup over to within ¼-½” of rim.

Seal.

No water bath is necessary.
