Best Nana Maes Garlic Dill Pickles Recipes
AUNT AGNES' GARLIC DILL PICKLES
I can think of no better contribution a cucumber can make than becoming a pickle! This recipe is another handwritten family cookbook classic from my step-grandmother and great aunt, Agnes (oh, these convoluted Southern families ;). It is important to make sure your vinegar is of a high quality--don't go generic. We usually use Heinz brand. Also, this recipe is for 7-8 quarts, so adjust accordingly based on how many cucumbers you have (or their size!).

NANA MAE'S GARLIC DILL PICKLES
My grandmother was famous for her garlic dill pickles and we loved them. She made them each summer and they were never ready until Thanksgiving. She used rusty screw on lids that took strong muscle to remove......but the real test of these pickles was when she had Grandpa George "test" them to make sure they were OK for us to eat while we looked on, wondering what would happen to him if they weren't! These pickles are not refrigerated until after they are opened. Do not process them in a hot water bath. Follow the direction and enjoy very crunchy dill pickles. Should your brine become cloudy prior to opening do NOT eat these, it should stay clear. These pickles are fabulous and easy to make.

Steps:
- Cut ends off cucumbers and wash.
- Pack the cucumbers in jar with dill and garlic to taste.

- Place the slice of dark rye bread on top.
- Put lid on loosely.
- Set in the sun for four days.
- Take the rye bread off.
- Chill for two days and then you can use them.
CROCK POT GARLIC DILL PICKLES
Here is a new way to put that crockpot to use! These pickles aren't cooked, but the crock is perfect for brining small batches of pickles. These pickles are crunchy and full of garlic flavor.. reminds me of the ones they give you with your sandwich at the deli. These pickles are super easy to make and last for up to 6 months in the fridge. Note: In trying to submit this recipe, it changed the names of a couple of my ingredients. "Instant minced garlic" is the dried minced garlic sold in the spice section. And, "pickles, crisp" is a product called "pickle Crisp" sold in the canning section. Also, its not mineral water, it's spring water sold in jugs. Hope you all enjoy!
