French Pickles, Delicious.
Mrs. E. S. Swartsy, in the Housekeeper, of Minneapolis, Minn., gives us her recipe, which she says is delicious. " One colander of sliced, green tomatoes; 1 qt. sliced onions; 1 colander of pared and sliced cucumbers; 2 handfuls of salt; let stand 24 hours. (I should think over night was long enough. ) Then drain and add celery seed and allspice, each 1/2 oz.; 1 tea-spoonful of pepper; 1 table-spoonful of tumeric (this is only for color—a yellow shade); 1 lb. of brown sugar; 2 table-spoonfuls of mustard, and 1 gallon of vinegar.
Remarks. —'I should think a small head of cabbage, and 1 of cauliflower might be added also, with satisfaction; and it would be more Yankeefied, if all Were chopped, and the vinegar put on hot. The currie vinegar, above, would be nice on some, of any kind of pickles, for a change.
