"One of our favorite bread and butter pickle recipes from my family cookbook.These can be made with peeled or unpeeled cucumbers. The unpeeled make for lovely crispy green slices, the peeled eye appealing yellow bread and butter slices. Either way a great tasting pickle! PLEASE NOTE –for all pickle recipes shared from my family cookbook I do not process my pickles - make as we have been making them in our area for generations. Processing does change the texture of most pickles. If you have safety concerns please check the recommendations in your area. Be sure to use non reactive containers (use stainless steel, unchipped enamel/porcelain - be sure your plastic bowls and containers are food grade) Makes 6 - 7 pints."
