I like dill pickles and other salty pickles a lot. I save the juice/brine off my pickles and boil it and pour it over assorted vegetables, including cucumber slices.
We have been thinning the onions at the garden. I had a bunch of small ones and put them in a container. I just poured hot pickle juice over them, and I will keep them in the refrigerator. I guess you could say it is another frugal thing to do.

Yes, it is. My gram used to make relish with onions. So good. Had cloves and stuff in it. Yum!

Sounds like hers may have been a sweet relish.

They do not taste like the store processed pickles but they do taste fresh and are very good as a cold side relish.

I can think of a time or two when I craved it. . . I had gotten sick from being around some bug spray. I think it made my gut feel better providing minerals and probiotics. Normally I would not drink it straight.
