had this to say:

I use this recipe from Alton Brown for my pickling cukes. Works great. Don't
know how to describe them, but you seem to know enough about pickles to
judge for yourself from the recipe ingredients:

1C Water
1C Cider Vinegar
1/2C Champagne Vinegar (I've subst more cider since this is hard to find)
1/2C Sugar
2T Kosher salt + 2t Kosher salt
1T Mustard Seed
1/4t Turmeric
1t celery seed
1t pickling spice mix
4 cloves garlic, crushed

Bring to a boil. Simmer 4 minutes. Slice cukes and put them in jars. Dump
liquid to cover and seal. I get 2 jars out of this one, but that's not
useful info since I don't recall the size of the jars.

Hi all,

We've got an overabundance of cukes this year, and so I've been trying
various pickle recipes. I haven't found one we **really** like yet, so
I was hoping maybe someone out there has a favorite recipe they'd like
to share...?!

I'm especially interested in the following types: bread & butter,
sweet, and dill.

Also, if anyone has a recipe for pickled watermelon rind, I'd be
ever-so-grateful. Our great grandmother used to make it, but no one
ever thought to write down her recipe.

And yep, I did google pickle recipes, but there are soooo many out
there - and with variable results. I'd prefer a "tried and true"
recipe.

TIA!
Lisa
