How to Make Grammie Bea's Crispy Bread And Butter Pickles
- Wash and thinly slice cucumbers. Place in a large bowl and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to draw out moisture.
- After 30 minutes, rinse the cucumbers thoroughly under cold water and drain well. Pat dry with paper towels.
- In a large saucepan, combine the vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, celery seeds, turmeric, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Add the drained cucumbers and sliced onions to the boiling mixture. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the cucumbers are tender-crisp.
- Remove from heat and stir in the butter. Allow the pickles to cool completely in the saucepan.
- Once cooled, transfer the pickles to sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace. Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld. Enjoy!
- Optional: Add a few thin slices of fresh dill for extra flavor.
