1 peck green tomatoes.
¼ peck onions.
¼ pound white mustard-seed.
1 ounce allspice.
1 ounce cloves.
1 bottle mixed mustard.
2 tablespoonfuls black pepper.
1 tablespoonful cayenne.
1 ounce celery-seed.
1 pound brown sugar.
Slice the tomatoes and lay them in salt for twelve hours; pour off the
brine.
Slice the onions, and put a layer of onions, tomatoes, spices and
sugar into a bell-metal kettle, until the ingredients are all in. Pour

_French Pickle._
1 gallon cabbage.
½ gallon green tomatoes.
1 quart onions.
6 pods green pepper, without the seed.
3 tablespoonfuls ground mustard, or seed.
1 tablespoonful ginger.
1 tablespoonful horseradish.
1 tablespoonful cinnamon.
1 tablespoonful cloves.
2 tablespoonfuls salt.
1 tablespoonful celery.
¼ pound sugar.
½ gallon vinegar.
Chop up cabbage, tomatoes, onions, and pepper; sprinkle salt over it,
and let it stand an hour or so, and pour off the liquor. Add spices
and vinegar, boil all together until you can stick a straw through the
cabbage and tomatoes. This, as you see, will only make a small
quantity when boiled down.--_Mrs. M. McN._
SPANISH PICKLE.
4 dozen large cucumbers.
4 large green peppers.
½ peck onions.
½ peck green tomatoes.
Slice the whole, and sprinkle over with one pint salt, allow them to
remain over night, then drain them. Put the whole into a preserving
kettle, and add the following ingredients: sliced horseradish
according to your judgment, one ounce mace, one ounce white pepper,
one ounce turmeric, one ounce white mustard-seed, half an ounce
cloves, half an ounce celery-seed, four tablespoonfuls of dry mustard,
one and a half pounds brown sugar. Cover the whole with vinegar, and
boil it one hour.--_Mrs. J. J. M._
ONION PICKLE.
Peel and scald the onions in strong salt water twenty-five or thirty
minutes; take them out and lay on dishes in the sun, a day or two,
then put them in vinegar prepared as for cabbage pickle.--_Mrs. Dr.
J._
PICKLED ONIONS.
Pour boiling water over the onions and let them stand until the brine
gets cooled; then change the brine for nine mornings, warming it every
day. The ninth day put them in fresh water, and let them soak one day
and night. Then put the spices and vinegar on the fire, and let them
come to a boil, and drop in the onions in a few minutes; add sugar to
your taste.--_Mrs. A. H._
