Pickled Gherkins Recipe

Instructions

1. Put the gherkins into a large stone jar, and cover them with brine strong enough to carry an egg.
2. Place the cover on the jar, and leave it for two or three days, until the gherkins begin to turn yellow; then drain them, and pour boiling vinegar over them.
3. Put bay leaves on the top, keep the jar in a warm place, and heat the vinegar afresh every day, till the gherkins turn as green as you wish.
4. Boil fresh vinegar, and with it 1 large blade of mace, 2 ounces of whole pepper, 4 bay leaves, and half a dozen small silver onions to each quart.
5. Put the gherkins into wide-mouthed bottles, pour the vinegar over them, first allowing it to cool a little, or it will crack the bottles, and cork securely when cold.
6. Time, from a week to a fortnight.
