We recently made twenty quarts of garlic dill pickles. "Recently" meaning at least a month ago. I am behind on my blogging. But I guess it is good to be behind on blogging because your life is too full to record it in real time.

To each quart add garlic, dill and red pepper. Combine vinegar, salt and water. Bring to a boil. Fill jars and place grape leaf in each jar and seal. Makes 6 to 8 quarts.
