BEST EVER SWEET PICKLES
I pack away homegrown cucumbers every summer. This recipe is based on the pickled veggies in Brown Eggs and Jam Jars by Aimee Wimbush-Bourque, but I've made it less mustardy and more garlicky to fit my family's tastes. This method keeps them incredibly, refreshingly crunchy. -Ellie Martin Cliffe, Taste of Home Digital Deputy Editor

AUNT ALLENE'S SWEET PICKLES

I am posting those recipes here so that they will not be lost. This recipe was submitted by my Great Aunt Allene Palmer.

AUNT AGNES' GARLIC DILL PICKLES
I can think of no better contribution a cucumber can make than becoming a pickle! This recipe is another handwritten family cookbook classic from my step-grandmother and great aunt, Agnes (oh, these convoluted Southern families ;). It is important to make sure your vinegar is of a high quality--don't go generic. We usually use Heinz brand. Also, this recipe is for 7-8 quarts, so adjust accordingly based on how many cucumbers you have (or their size!).

AUNT POLY'S SWEET PICKLES
You just have to eat these pickles to understand how good they are. I will never again make this type pickles from scratch. These are just as good and a lot less trouble. The cook time is actually refrigerator time, since you don't do any cooking on this. Special thanks to my Aunt Poly Cole for this recipe.
