  4. Cover and let them stand one week, stirring every day.
  5. On the seventh day, drain.
  6. Cover slices in hot water with alum (1.9 oz entire container). Simmer 10 minutes, drain water.
  7. Cover with water again, adding 2 tablespoons of ginger, simmer 10 minutes then drain.
  8. Add: 3 cups of vinegar, 1 1.5 cups of water, 5 pounds of sugar minus 1 cup of sugar, 2 teaspoons of celery seed and 2 tablespoons of small pieces of cinnamon stick.
