  1. grammia REVIEW:

    I lost my mom's recipe and tried many others before I found this one. Wonderful!! The only thing I'd recommend is to put the spices is a loosley tied cheese cloth "bag" for easy removal. (Also, the second time I made these, I let the spices sit about 15 minutes longer in the syrup -- purely by accident and the flavor in the pickles developed even better.)
