Canning Pickles: Seeking a Good Recipe

In summary, when it comes to pickling, it's important to use small, firm cucumbers with thin skins, such as Kirby or "pickling" cucumbers. Regular table salt should not be used for pickling, as it contains additives that can affect the taste and texture. Pickling salt or kosher salt is recommended. Processing time for pickles can vary, but most will need to be processed for 10-15 minutes in a water bath canner. You can add other spices and herbs to your pickle recipe for different flavors, but be sure to follow a trusted recipe and use safe canning practices. It's best to wait 2-3 weeks before eating your canned pickles to allow the flavors to develop

I get a mix from Walmart. It is in a green pounch.. Mrs Wales (or something like that) and it is really good. you add sugar and vinegar. They are always a hit :)
 
Eat what you can, and what you can't, you can.(I learned that from a contestant on Groucho Marx's You Bet Your Life.)
 
I can send you some if you'd like. I make dill, bread & butter, christmas and cow tongue pickles!
