I said I was going to do it and I did. I made 2 jars of pickles. This is not a process for the faint of heart. Along the lines of making your own dough and growing a garden, it has a lot of steps and takes a long time. It also had the added pressure of botulism, as my father helpfully pointed out. I used a recipe from Whole Living and tips from Martha. I didn't have all the professional tools and made what I had work. So, if you choose to attempt this, remember you don't need to buy all the professional canning tools, although shopping is fun. Right now, the jars are cooling and tomorrow I'll break one open and test it. If all goes well, I might attempt jam.
