Yesterday I sliced up all of the cukes and put them in a large pot and started the pickling process.
I mixed the lime in the water, and dumped in the cukes.
They will be ready to be rinsed shortly.
If you are going to use this recipe be sure to rinse the cukes really really well. I suggest rinsing and dumping the fresh water at least 3 times and then filling the pot back up once more for the final soak.
The lime is so strong, that after handling it yesterday my hands are extremely smooth as it removed the top layer of skin on my palms.
Hmm, maybe I could work on a 'Summer Feet' foot soak. Mine feel like leather by this time of year between barefoot gardening and going to the beach, I need some emergency moisturizing.
