Sweet Pickled Cucumbers
This is my recipe for the most delicious pickled cucumbers you’ll ever eat! The recipe isn’t complicated, but does take a little bit of time. So be patient, and take the time - you’ll be happy you did. Then once they are ready you will find yourself putting them on cheese platters, cheese and salami sandwiches, or like us eating them straight out of the jar! *Note as there is turmeric in this recipe, it does stain bench tops so please be careful! And always follow safe food practices by sterilising all jars before bottling.
