Bread and butter picks are sweet and so are the Yum's. They look like
the same.

Yes.

They might be. (they look the same in that picture) B&B pickles are
not as sweet as most "sweet pickles" and they are spiced primarily
with mustard seeds and celery seeds.

I would be in for that action, possibly. Early in December? If they're
for gifts?

My late Great Aunt Marie used to make wonderful B&B pickles, the only
pickles I'd go out of my way to eat. They were wonderful, a taste
revelation to my 6-year old self. That woman could COOK! I wish I'd
spent more time with her.

Yeah I know...LOL.

Remember, I will be in the SFBA then..and they might be available in
decent quantities in that area.
Here, it is a different matter.

Are there any other good relishes, etc from the Joy of Pickling, that
would be worthwhile making?

Your first reference to Bread & Butter Pickles named Edrena Jones--I
don't have that book, Christine. I've got lots of others, though. AFA
being worthwhile to make, I think that's subjective and will depend a
lot on what flavors and products you favor. Cucumbers vs other
vegetables vs fruits, etc.

involved with the hot water bath and the quantities most of the recipes
produce.

I really like the taste and texture of English pickled onions in malt
vinegar but they are expensive to buy and hard to find. I got a good
recipe on r.f.cooking years ago and made some for myself. Unfortunately,
you have to steep the onions in brine for a month and it's hard to be
that patient.

Blake, ping Marilyn on rec.food.preserving--I have a vague recollection
that she used some frozen pearl onions in a pickle this summer/fall.
Can't hurt to ask.

IIRC years ago I made some jardiniere with frozen pearl onions (eye appeal
is a biggie with jardiniere, I gave it as gifts), the onions were just
fine...
