SWEET MUSTARD PICKLES



Sweet Mustard Pickles image

GREAT ON COLD MEATS : This is a mixture of Vegetable preparation from one recipe and the Mustard Sauce from another .. A family favorite All Year Around .. Make in quantity when cauliflowers are cheap... because your friends will be wanting a jar or two from each batch .. Shirley used to make these Pickles at least 3 or 4 times a year and her grandchildren were often caught eating it out of the bottle .. Shirley would chastise them with "Get out of there ..Don't eat it all .. I won't have any left" .. but they knew that she had 5 or 6 jars in the cupboard above the fridge ! *IF YOU CAN'T GET GREEN TOMATOES.. REPLACE WITH 1 MORE CUCUMBER AND ONE MORE CAULIFLOWER*

GREAT AUNT VERA'S SWEET MUSTARD PICKLE



Great Aunt Vera's Sweet Mustard Pickle image

My Grandmother's sister's recipe... it's at least 70 years old. I usually hate pickle but I love this one :) Excellent use for all the home grown green tomatoes that never go red. Great on crackers w/cheese, in a cold meat sandwich etc. It does make a LOT though... but you shouldn't have a problem giving it as gifts tc.. Our family and friends are always coming back for more:) This makes at least 19 LARGE jars.. so I'd recommend cutting the recipe down to 1/4 if you want to make this the first time..)

2 3/4 kg onions (4.4 lb)
1 large cauliflower

2 1/3 kg sugar (4.3 lb)

28 1/2 g turmeric (1 oz)
2 tablespoons curry

Steps:

  • Cut up vegetables, add the salt, cover with cold water and leave to stand overnight.
  • Pour off the liquid next morning, put vegetables in to big pan (or several as necessary) and cover with vinegar.
  • Add sugar and cook until soft.
  • Mix the flour, mustard, turmeric, curry and mix to a smooth paste with some cold vinegar.
  • Remove main mixture from heat and add paste in stages VERY carefully to the main mixture (too much too quick and it will become lumpy) Stir well and boil for 5 minutes.
  • Bottle in screw-top jars.
  • Refrigerated, this stuff keeps for months and months.
  • Note: This makes at least 19 large jars, so I'd highly recommend doing a 1/2 or 1/4 recipe first!

MUSTARD CUCUMBER PICKLES



Mustard Cucumber Pickles image

This is a great tasting mustard pickle recipe for those cucumbers that get away on you! Large is good, seedy and bitter no! Recipe from a friend's family collection. A family favorite and one that is especially good with homemade sausage, or any sausage for that matter! Great with smokies. NOTE For those new to canning or as a general refresher please read one of the many excellent canning cookbooks or go on line to become familiar with the canning procedures. While I have never processed these - I see new guidelines as to processing - do check for the recommends in your area. Do remember there are no short cuts when it comes to cleanliness - I have always assured the utensils as well as the jars are sterilized - clean the sinks and work area and have good supply of clean dish cloths on hand. Never use non - reactive containers ( use stainless steel unchipped enamel/ porcelain - be sure all your bowls and containers are food grade)
