These were my brother's favourite thing in the world. Can anyone help me make sense of the recipe? I'd like to make him some for Christmas.

    This is def not shelf stable. Also for anyone visually impaired, you should type out the recipe

    You can absolutely make these and refrigerate them; they’re an old school sweet pickle, a little on the “softer” side (often found in relish trays when I was a kid) – my family was from the Chicagoland area and mostly Polish; this recipe could have come right from my babcia’s books.

    Questions… are you able to get small sized cucumbers this time of year? Do you have a source for alum? These also take about two weeks to make and let sit and get good.

    Happy to help with translating the cursive as well!
