This is my mother-in-law’s recipe for bread and butter pickles. I have fond memories of making this recipe with her. Before I met her, I’d only had bread and butter pickles from the grocery store and I wasn’t a big fan of them. This recipe changed everything for me. This is one of my favorites that I make every year.
