Bread & Butter Slices
2-1/2 cups sugar 2 cups cider vinegar
1 cup water 1 tsp. each salt and celery seed
1tbl mustard seed 1½ tbls. whole mixed pickling spice
3-1/2 lbs. med-sized cucumbers (unpeeled), sliced 1/4" thick
Prepare 5 pt sized canning jars. In a 5-qt pot, combine sugar, vinegar, water, salt, celery seeds, mustard seed, and pickling spice. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add cucumber slices to syrup. Return mixture to a boil, turning cucumbers gently to coat with syrup. Continue boiling for 1-1/2 min.; remove from heat. Fill one hot jar at a time with boiling hot mixture. Fill to within 1/8" of rim. Wipe rim with a damp cloth and screw on band as tight as you can. Continue with remaining jars.
Apple Caramel Syrup
4 cups apples (with juice) 3 cups sugar
½ cup Karo syrup
¼ - ½ cup Mrs Richardson's caramel topping
1. I happened to over cook my apples after I peeled and cored them so they were to soft to even try to get them out and drain them.
2. (I had a canner full of apples.) So I mashed them with the juice, (left some lumps) and came up with this recipe.
3. You can use it as Ice cream Topping, or Pancake/waffle syrup.
4. I put the apple mixture in a kettle and heated.
5. I added the sugar, Karo Syrup,& Mrs.
6. Richards Caramel Topping and brought to a boil for a couple minutes and put into pint jars and process them for 30 minutes to make sure they sealed.

espresso cup, and "cut"
(from the
Spanish word cortar)
