As part of an ongoing series, we are publishing one recipe every week from Pontiac County Recipes, a small book that is home to a collection of kitchen secrets from across the region, published by Pontiac Printshop in 1968.
Our rediscovery of this book last year has inspired us to recirculate its recipes, by way of this newspaper, through the communities from which they first came to us.
This week’s recipe is a classic: the dill pickle. It can be slapped on a hamburger, chopped up and turned into relish, or just eaten straight out of the fridge! A favourite midnight snack in many a household. This recipe doesn’t have any amounts, so just use what you have! While following proper canning methods, of course.
If you have any old family recipes passed down from yesteryear that you’d like to share with us, please get in touch!
