We have a long growing season here, so we find many ways to use fresh vegetables from our garden. This is a Southern favorite in my family that is both easy and flavorful. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups white vinegar |
1 cup water |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons mixed pickling spices |
4 small cucumbers, sliced |
2 large tomatoes, cubed |
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. In a 1-1/2-qt. bowl, combine the vinegar, water, sugar, pepper and salt. Place pickling spices on a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with string to form a bag. Add to vinegar mixture.
2. Stir in the cucumbers, tomatoes and carrots. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Discard spice bag before serving. Yield: 4 cups.
