How to Make Bakinbaby's Bread And Butter Pickles

  1. Thinly slice 1.5 lbs pickling cucumbers. Combine cucumbers in a large bowl. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons kosher salt. Add enough ice cubes to completely cover the cucumbers. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably 6-8 hours.
  2. Drain and thoroughly rinse the cucumbers. Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups white vinegar, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds, 1 cup orange marmalade, 1 teaspoon celery seeds, 1 teaspoon turmeric, and 1 teaspoon dry mustard.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5-6 minutes, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is heated through.
  5. Pack the drained cucumbers tightly into sterilized quart jars, leaving ½ inch headspace.
  6. Carefully pour the hot vinegar solution over the cucumbers, leaving ½ inch headspace. Remove any air bubbles by gently running a non-metal utensil along the sides of the jars.
  7. Wipe the jar rims clean, place lids and bands on jars, and tighten fingertip tight.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 3 days before eating for the best flavor. Pickles will keep crisp and fresh in the refrigerator for up to one month.
  9. **Optional:** For longer storage (up to one year), process jars in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes, following recommended canning procedures for safe preservation.
