1 peck medium sized cucumbers. Pare and slice in ½ inch slices, stand over night with a little salt thrown over them; and in the morning wash with clear water through a colander. Take a small cup of olive oil, ½ ounce of white mustard seed, ½ ounce of black mustard seed, 1 teaspoonful of celery seed. Mix seeds in oil and pour over the cucumbers and stir thoroughly. Have a quart of vinegar made hot and when cool pour over the cucumbers and put in jars. Have the cucumbers covered with vinegar. Seal if you wish. Frances H. Potter. |
