Sour Pickles
["1 c. sugar", "1 c. non-iodized salt", "1 c. dried mustard (Coleman's)", "1 gal. cider vinegar", "small pickling cucumbers"]
["Using an egg beater, mix all ingredients, except cucumbers, in large crock. Add cucumbers, making sure to sink them in the brine. Put a plate with a rock on top to keep cukes submerged. Let cukes sit in brine 2 to 3 weeks, preferably longer. You can add a pinch of alum to the brine to keep pickles crisp. Pack in jars or you can just leave in crock and eat at your leisure. Makes 4 to 5 quarts."]
