You have such a down to earth vibe and a super pretty smile. Thanks for this video! It's my first year wanting to make my own pickles and i've been lost in the sauce. Canning tomatoes feels much easier and less scary for some reason than pickles.
This is so déjà vu!!!! I ordered your cook book this past week and used your recipe to make refrigerator pickles THIS AFTERNOON! Now this video came out. Either great minds think alike or…we both have an abundance of cucumbers lol!!!! Love your cook book by the way and highly recommend it ♥️
I just “found” a mess of cucumbers that are waaaay too big. Some I’ll feed to the chickens but not sure what to do with the big ones that haven’t turned yellow. I have had minimal success making pickles. So hard to keep up with it all. I will pick and come in exhausted then leave them till the next day or maybe more so now I know I need to pick and then handle the right away. Thanks so much for this video. I think I’ll see if some are good to make spears and try your recipe. Love love love this channel.
Thank you for the knowledge you share about pickles. I have no idea how to make them and you have made it so simple. I have cucumbers that will be ready and a short period of time. And guess what? I'm going to make pickles! God bless you and your family.
We have a few pickling cucumbers starting to come in now so if I can get enough fresh ones at once I will try doing a jar. I usually try and do a whole big batch but it is hard to get them especially if I don't plant enough. Put in a patch of winter squash today, had to plow new ground to do it and made a bunch of yellow jackets unhappy. I have never planted as much stuff as this year.
Megan those squash blossoms make a great edible treat. What I do is put a little cream cheese in them, moisten the outside very very little after rolling them up them dust them good with corn startch and shallow fry over higher heat in butter oil mix (your homemade lard should work great ) until golden brown. Careful they will be hot inside but very good
Love you guys videos...the thing you called dill sprigs are called dill weed and it is awesome on fish baked in oven with lemon and 1 can of evaporated milk, bake at temp 350 for 25 minutes, northern fish is the best try it you will be amazed...called creamed fish. cut off a little bit of that blossom end and they be crispier..
This video was exactly what I was looking for. How long do the jars say upside down? Am I correct to assume that they can be put on the shelf and not refrigerated?
It’s like planting by the signs, but doing things in the right signs are for more than just planting. So the signs refer to a body part, ex today we were in the feet, as long as the sign isn’t in the bowels you can make pickles and they shouldn’t be mushy. Another example is burying fence posts, if done in the wrong sign you won’t have enough dirt to fill back in the hole around the post, I know it sounds wild but I’ve seen it happen. The signs are on the calendar of the farmers almanac and some Raymond brownie calendars. It’s a deep rooted tradition in this area, my papa wouldn’t even cross the road if the signs wouldn’t right, ha! So it’s something I’ve been taught over the years and am also trying to relearn things I have forgotten.
Did you do water bath canner with these?? I did the Aunt Bees kerosene pickles lol lol...I think everyone has a bad batch at least one time I got your cookbook...love it!!
Those jars of tiny pickles cost more in the store than those big fat ones. They look real pretty Megan. Except for eating right off the Vine, how do you use the larger raw cukes?
You are such a breath of fresh air, a true farming woman, real and generous with information I wish I had found you a long time ago.❤
Wow I was amazed at how easy that was. No water bath canner? Easy enough ❤ thank you Megan!!
Fresh dill is wonderful in potato salad.
I didn’t know it was that easy to make pickles ❤

Hi Meagan! Thanks for sharing this. Im going to try to make my very first batch of dill pickles this summer and i will use your recipe!!
Your garden looks amazing

People who love farm life like you guys and us out here shame we all don't live close to each other

Thank you so much for the support!
Waste not want not. We all need to live by that. Thanks for the video, God bless.
You are such a pleasure to watch. I learn something every time I watch you.

Beautiful garden and thank you for sharing
I have your cookbook too! And I love it as well! Absolutely recommend it to everyone!
Thank you!
Awesome! Love your garden. Love the recipe.
Beautiful garden!! You did a good job on the pickles.

Better to be prepared for the worst than sit back and do nothing I figure. Thanks so much for the support, I enjoy reading all your comments!
Merci beaucoup pour l'histoire de Super Dill Pickles making❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Millions of blessings,
Esther St Juste
Thanks for the recipe! Enjoyed watching your video.
Thanks for watching!
I like both yes it smells so good
The blossom end produces ethylene like fruit, that will make the cucumber go soft/bad if not removed.
Thanks for sharing!

You made me snort ny coffee up my nose when you said the "Aunt Bee" comment! That was great.

So glad I found your channel. :)
Thank you so much, just subbed to yours as well!
I would slice those bigger cucumbers up and use them for making bread and butter pickles. Bread and butter pickles are my favourite.
Everything looks goood!🥒🍅🥕🍉🍇🍎🍊
Thanks for sharing. 🧢
Like that rid bit oh how I miss my aunt
ok explain to this girl raised in town what you said about days to can pickles

@@TrueGritAppalachianWays My Grandma was the same way. Unfortunately I didn't get alot of the traditions passed down
I like raw pickles if they are bitter just peal and then slice
Did you do water bath canner with these??
I did the Aunt Bees kerosene pickles lol lol...I think everyone has a bad batch at least one time
I got your cookbook...love it!!
Your supposed to, but I have been known to just let the hot liquid seal the jar for me 😉
@@TrueGritAppalachianWays just turn the jars upside down??
Yes
Do you personally keep these refrigerated before popping the seals? And are you storing these with or without the rings before opening?
@@TrueGritAppalachianWaysI was wondering if I could do that.
I messed up pickles too… been debating on whether to open them all up, put them in a food processor and just let them be dill relish and reprocess. 🙈
Make lemonade out of lemons! I think that sounds great!
What do you put in with your water for your pickles
Hi, just found you. Wondering what kind of fertilizer you use in your garden?
Hey! Glad to have you here! We use compost, cover crops and last resort 10-10-10 ☺️ hope this helps!!
I use Redmond’s Real Salt as well. Where do you get it from in bulk?
Can I use pink Himalayan salt instead of pickling salt
I’ve grown cucumbers and eaten and made thousands of pickles but I’ve never had an un-pickled cucumber
(I think the dill heads might be called sprigs)
Can you do this without sugar?
I’ve never tried honestly but have red that it can be replaced with sugar replacers like Splenda.
@@TrueGritAppalachianWays perfect. I started growing steevia this year to dry and powder!
🍯
Do you make fermented pickles as well?
I have in the past, but we like them this way the best ☺️
I liked your recipe, but I can't have salt.
Can I leave the salt out or will it effect the recipe?
It may effect the taste of the pickles, I’ve personally never tried it but you could try a jar and see how it turns out!
Show us how you can your corn.please.
Hopefully can get a video of it this summer!
Gherkins...
Do you pickle other veggies like carrots and radishes?
Honestly I never have, I did pickle some squash and zucchini this year tho
Are these refrigerator pickles or shelf pickles?
Shelf pickles
Those jars of tiny pickles cost more in the store than those big fat ones. They look real pretty Megan. Except for eating right off the Vine, how do you use the larger raw cukes?
I make what’s called 14 day pickles with the bigger cucumbers, also if we don’t eat them raw the chickens and the pigs enjoy the extra ☺️
Your big cucumbers are good for red cinnamon pickle
I think I’m watching this again because I need like a crash course 🥒 🥒🥒 🧄
