The other day I was served an unusual bunch of pickles with my
hamburger. It was sweet yet very garlicky and the host told he rec'd
this large jar from an elderly neighbor. She buys large jars of pickle
slices (kosher?) and then adds sugar and garlic to the brine. He
couldn't tell me if she drained the brine off and simmered it to disolve
the sugar or anything. I didn't see garlic but sure could taste it.
Has anyone heard of this sort of thing before? They were kinda addictive!!
