Oh, please post the Recipe for microwave bread and butter pickles. I would love to try to make these. :-D Here's the recipe you requested! Start with a rather large microwaveable bowl - if possible, use glass because the coloring from the mustard seeds will stain plastic containers. 6 or 8 cucumbers 1 tsp salt 32 oz bottle vinegar (you won't use all of this) 1 1/2 cups of sugar 1/2 tsp turmeric 1/2 tsp celery seed 3/4 tsp mustard seed Gently cleanse the cucumbers, slice, and place in bowl (for bread and butter pickles, be careful not to slice too thin!) Mix all the above ingredients along with half the bottle of vinegar into a separate bowl. Pour mixture over the sliced cucumbers (you might have to add additional vinegar in order to cover the cucumbers) and microwave on high for 7 minutes. Remove from microwave and gently stir the mixture. Put back into microwave for an additional 8 to 10 minutes or just until the cucumbers look "softened". Place a lid on the bowl or cover with foil wrap and place into the refrigerator over night or at least for 4 hours. YUMMY!!!! :) :) |
Oh my! Sorry for the typo! I meant cucumbers. How nice to know that people can understand me even if I can't spell.

My mom makes a salad I like real well. It is any kind of pasta but I like ziti in it. cook and cool the pasta. Dice or slice cucumber and onion into it and you can add tomato too if you like. Use a vinegar/water/sugar dressing. this sauce is to taste so just try it and balance the ingrediants til it tastes right to you.
Chill in the fridge for a few hrs or over night. Serve cold. |
