Mustard Pickles



Recipe for mustard pickles:

2 qts tomatoes
2 qts little cucumbers
1 qt onions (small)

Cut these up and soak all over-night with salt

2 qts vinegar, add 2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons celery seed
1 teaspoon mustard seed
1 cauliflower, cut up - also add tomatoes, cucumbers and onions that have drained and ?? (I think it says "sook" as in the past tense of soak) until soft, not mushie.


Reverse side, I'm not sure if it's still part of the recipe:

??? 3/4 cup flour
1/4 lb ground mustard
a tablespoon turmeric
??? water
Add to boiling mixture and continue boiling 5 minutes
Stir so it does not stick
