CHEF JOHN'S BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES
At the end of summer during the Great Depression the excess cucumber crop was sliced, salted, pickled, and put up in jars for the cold, lean months ahead. I can just imagine what a treat it was to fill a sandwich with these sweet crunchy coins (bread and butter pickles, as they came to be known). I'm sure it was a wonderful break from what must have been a fairly flavorless existence. For longer storage, you can process the pickles in canning jars in a boiling water canner.

Steps:
- Place the vegetable oil in an 8-quart stainless steel soup pot and place on medium heat until the oil reaches 350 degrees F. Place the flour in a medium mixing bowl and, with a slotted spoon, add the Bread and Butter Pickles to the flour. Coat the pickles with the flour, making sure they are individually coated, as the pickles tend to stick together. This is easy to achieve if done in 2 or 3 small batches. Add the pickles to the hot oil and fry, turning once, until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Drain into a paper-towel-lined mixing bowl to absorb any excess grease. Season with kosher salt. Serve on a small plate with a ramekin of Buttermilk Chive Dressing.
- Slice the cucumbers 1/4-inch thick by hand or on a mandoline into large mixing bowl. Toss the cucumbers with the pickling salt and cover with a thin layer of ice. Set aside for 4 hours. Drain, rinse and drain the cucumbers again. Toss the drained cucumbers with the mustard seed and crushed red pepper. Transfer to a storage container, leaving enough room for the brine. Make the brine by combining the vinegar, 4 cups water, the sugar and turmeric in a nonreactive saucepot. Brine to a boil and pour over the cucumbers. Let cool to room temperature before storing in a refrigerator for 3 weeks before using.
- In a small mixing bowl, add the sour cream, buttermilk and apple cider vinegar and whisk until the ingredients are incorporated. Add the chives, dill, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste and stir once more. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. For best results, do a day or two ahead of time before using.

- UPDATE!
- I made these this week end -- not bad! I added a fresh sliced jalapeno -- just enough spice -- made them interesting.
- I also used Splenda in place of the sugar.
Tips:
- Use a variety of cucumbers for different textures and flavors. Kirby cucumbers are small and have a mild flavor, while pickling cucumbers are larger and have a more assertive flavor.
- Make sure to slice the cucumbers evenly so that they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the cucumbers so that you don't crush them.
- Soak the cucumbers in ice water for at least 30 minutes before pickling them. This will help to remove any bitterness from the cucumbers.
- Use a clean glass jar for pickling the cucumbers. A plastic jar may not be able to withstand the heat of the pickling liquid.
- Make sure to seal the jar tightly after filling it with the pickling liquid. This will help to prevent spoilage.
- Store the pickles in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks before eating them. This will allow the flavors to develop.
