Edit: Hereā€™s the recipe. I couldnā€™t find a recipe that didnā€™t use already-made dill pickles, so I combined several recipes instead. I used the National Center for Home Food Preservationā€™s vinegar solution ratios for sweet pickles to make sure the pH was safe. Then I used a combo of spices from a sweet dill recipe and a sweet horseradish recipe.

My dill plants didnā€™t do well this year, so I used dried. Itā€™s important to note, Iā€™ve never made this recipe before and since I just canned yesterday I donā€™t know yet whether itā€™s good.

Makes 4-5 pint jars

  • 4 lbs cucumbers
  • 1.5 cups apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 3.25 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cup canning salt
  • In each clean, sterilized jar add:
  • 0.75 tsp mustard seed
  • 1 Tbsp dill weed
  • 1.5 tsp prepared horseradish Cut off a little of the blossom end. Slice and put in hot vinegar solution. When cucumbers are heated through, pack in jars. Add vinegar solution, leaving a 1/2ā€ headspace. Water bath can for 10 minutes.

      I added the recipe to my post. My parents bought a couple jars from a home canned booth a few years ago and ever since Iā€™ve been trying to find a recipe. I finally decided just to put together a recipe myself

    I will soon be harvesting a lot of horseradish and have been harvesting cakes all summer. Give me a recipe

      I added the recipe to my post. Iā€™ve never made it before and had to combine several recipes because I couldnā€™t find one that was sweet and dill and horseradish (even though Iā€™ve bought home canned sweet horseradish dill pickles before). Also I used prepared horseradish instead of fresh grated, so youā€™d need to change the amount

      Thanks! Itā€™s a Mikey (my grandmaā€™s word meaning untested recipe) so fingers crossed it turns out like Iā€™m wanting it to
