My Grandma passed away at the age of 94. She was a wonderful cook and I was lucky enough to inherit her recipes. Many date back to the 1940s and 50s. Grandma prepared them in a charming country kitchen with no running water and most of her produce came from her garden, not from the grocery store. These are made-from-scratch recipes. I wish I had spent more time with her in the kitchen and . . . I wish I had spent more time with her for so many other reasons.

Pickels - Bread and Butter Dill Pickles

Place a sprig of dill in the bottom of a quart jar.  Slice medium size cucumbers (not too thin).  Pack in jar tightly.  Add 1 tsp salt and place an additional piece of dill on top.

Cook 1 cup white vinegar and 1 cup sugar.  Pour over pickles hot and seal the jar at once.
