Back a few posts I shared with you that we'd made some freezer pickles that would be ready after chilling out for 3 weeks.
Time's up and I've pulled a bag out of the freezer.
These are really nice, turned out better than I expected. The texture is good, and the taste is a combo of sweet and salty. Interesting and delicious. This recipe is a keeper!
Freezer Pickles
8 cups thinly sliced cucumbers
2 onions, thinly sliced
2 tb salt
1 cup white vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
Toss the cucumbers onions and salt together in a large bowl. Cover and let sit for 2 to 3 hours.
Rinse the cucumbers very well. Squeeze handfuls of cucumber to remove excess water.
Put the cucumber/onions into freezer bags or freezer containers. Stir the vinegar and sugar together until the sugar is dissolved, and pour over the cucumber/onions.
Freeze at least 3 weeks before eating. The longer the pickles sit, the sweeter they will be. Thaw in the refrigerator before eating.

that looks good, i've never heard of freezer pickles before. thanks for the recipe!
I love pickles and this is so unique--I am marking this one to try for sure.
Thanks you guys, I hope you try them and enjoy them!
If only I had room in my freezer...sigh.... but I am working on that.
This sounds great, I might give them a try, I've never done anything freezer-y before. Though, I think I might wait til i get a mandolin to chop up the cucumbers. Gotta have an excuse to buy more kitchen stuff. :p
These look so great! I made some refrigerator pickles this past summer but I didn't freeze them. They turned out really well too.
