Pickled Okra
3 pounds small okra, uncut
6 sprigs fresh dill or 3 teaspoons dried dill
6 cloves garlic
1/4 cup salt
4 cups vinegar
4 cups water
Rinse okra thoroughly. Pack into 6 hot sterilized jars. Place dill, and a clove of garlic in a jar. Heat salt, vinegar, and water to boiling in a large heavy saucepan. Simmer 10 minutes. Pour hot liquid over okra to within 1/8 inch of top. Seal jars immediately.
Cook in water bath for 15 minutes.
A water bath is having enough water to cover jars in a large cooker that will allow boiling.
Be careful when removing jars from boiling water!
Note:
Pickled okra is a favorite in the South.
