Shrinking of Pickles
Dear Aunt Daisy, Regarding the shrinking of pickles mentioned in your column in a recent issue, the follawing might be helpful. Have ready the following preparation: Bring to the boil an equal quantity of vinegar and water (enough to fill a vinegar bottie). Add a tablespoon of sugar, more or less as desired, Boil gently for 5 or 10 minutes. Cool and store. When making tomato relish or other pickles, I cover them in the ordinary way with greaseproof paper and flour paste. When about to use make good the shrinkage with the above preparation, turn into a basin and mix thoroughly. The ‘tomato relish, etc., will look and taste as if freshly made. I find it an advantage to use small bottles for any preserve con-
taining vinegar
