Homemade Bread and Butter Pickles

STEVE W.

I made this recipe with a few modifications and really liked it a lot. I did not use dill but will next time--the grocery store was out. I did not use horseradish but instead substituted sliced and seeded jalapeños (one half pepper). I think I could safely use one whole pepper. I deleted the turmeric. For the salt, I started with one half teaspoon and thought it was fine but the wife said it needed more so I added another half teaspoon. I did not heat the container, mine was room temp and worked just fine. I have not had any problems with storage in frig. I also used a thick slice of onion at the bottom or the container, and also added some chopped pieces of sweet onion throughout. Overall, this is an excellent recipe and way cheaper than buying prepared pickles. I will definitely make it again.
