I normally do not care for sweet pickles. They're too... sweet I guess.
I can't just bite into a whole sweet pickle. I prefer dill. I do like sweet relish on my hot dogs, though.
And, of course, I love snacking on these Sweet Refrigerator Pickles.
I wrote in my Corn Soufflé post that I grew up surrounded by corn and pickles.
I guess I misspoke since the baby cucumbers aren't pickles until you pickle them!
I "picked" up these beauties from the local farmer's market.
We have a few of these markets in Jacksonville and I don't mind driving a bit to get to them because their produce is fresh, local, and cheap.
It's also the only place I can seem to find genuine Thai basil.
If you don't frequent your local farmer's market, I would highly recommend at least checking it out.
This recipe is adapted from my dad's. He loves to make Sweet Refrigerator Pickles and dill sun pickles.
He also loves to drop jars off to different people around their small town. He's friendly like that.
