Title: Sweet Pickles From Dill
Categories: Pickle
Yield: 1 Recipe

1	ga	Sour or dill pickles (size and kind you prefer)
5	lb	Sugar
2		OR 3 garlic cloves; cut in half
1	oz	TO 2 ounces liquid hot red pepper sauce

Drain pickles thoroughly. Discard liquid, slice pickles and drain again (let sit in a colander 4 to 5 hours). Fill gallon jar about one-fourth full of pickle slices and add sugar gradually alternating with pickles. Add garlic and pepper sauce. Tighten lid. Let stand 5 days at room temperature, turning once or twice every day. Refrigerate.

These pickles cannot be processed and sealed like scratch pickles. They are crispy crunchy. You'll note that no liquid is added; the pickles develop their own after sugar is added.
