Mom’s Sweet Pickles from Dill Pickles


Have you ever tasted a pickle made in this fashion?  I don’t even know how to describe the taste other than to say they are incredibly delicious!  They do not taste like a dill pickle nor do they taste like a sweet pickle.  They are a totally unique pickle!

I remember these pickles from my early years when Mom made them and what a treat they were.  I wanted her to make them much more often!  They are like candy, I kid you not! 

These pickles are easy, easy to make, there is no canning and all of that involved.  Just empty the dill pickle jar, cook a little brine with spices, plunk them back in the jar and refrigerate.  That’s it!  They’re done!  I love all pickles but these are truly my favorite!  Try them; they just might become your favorite.  They are just so different.  You have to try them if you’ve never tasted them!  If you love pickles the way I love pickles; believe me, you will love these pickles!
