Day #148 - Sweet & sour?...

Sweet dill pickles - how's that for an oxymoron? LOL. Not quite as sour as dill, and not quite as sweet as bread & butter, these sweet dills are one of my favorites. Just drain a jar of dill pickles, slice and return to the jar. Then pour a boiled mixture of sugar, water, mustard and celery seed over them and let sit for 2-3 days in the fridge. Good stuff!

Oh wow, that looks so good! I LOVE pickles, but I've never had sweet dill ones before. Could you elaborate on how much of each ingredient you use?

That picture just screams "summertime" to me.

Funny. I don't buy pickles (and I certainly don't make them!), but when I'm out to eat and a pickle is on my plate, I can't snatch them up fast enough!

These look yummy.

They look good and I agree - great photo! My mom would have loved these, and actually, I think she used to make something like this. She loved her pickles :)

I love bread and butter pickles, but these sound yummy, too. And easy to do yourself!
