Pickles

Look at all the cucumbers we harvested from our gardens!!! 

We had enough to make......PICKLES!!!!

Our first step was to cut up the cucumbers.

We also cut up a onion, but the teachers did that because the children wanted to see them cry! 😜

Here is everything you need to make pickles. 

Filling the jars.

Next we makes the pickling mixture.

Here is what we added;

3 cups of vinegar,

3 cups of water, 

2 tablespoons of sugar, 

( sometimes a cute Preschool 1 friend comes to visit and help out... She belongs to Mrs. Thwaites)

3 tablespoons of pickling salt.

Boil for 2 minutes.

While our mixture boiled we added our spices to our pickles. 

Garlic and dill weed. 

All finished and ready to chill in the fridge for one day, then they are ready to eat!!!
