How do I make sandwich pickles like the ones you get from Harvey's on your burger?
By Don P.
I got this on cooks.com . Not sure if this is what your looking for.
Pickle Sandwich
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
1 tbsp. mayonnaise
1 tbsp. lemon juice
Mix together cream cheese, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and onion salt. Spread mixture on slice of bread. Put dill pickle on bread and roll up, press ends gently together. Put in refrigerator 6 to 8 hours to set. Slice pickle sandwiches and serve.
Note: You can fix mixture ahead of time and freeze until ready to use. When ready to use, set out at room temperature.
Lay your large pickle down and with a sharp knife and sturdy hand, slice lengthwise with very thin slices. This is the best way for sandwiches.

My mother used to make a recipe of pickle that was called Ginger Strip Pickles. She used an entire jar or box of ginger for this recipe and very large cucumbers. You had to spoon out the seeds and pulp then cut the cucumber into strips. Does anyone have this recipe? It if very strong, and hot with ginger even though it is sweet too. Very, very good and different. Thanks, any reply greatly appreciated. I have her old recipe but am unable to read portions of it enough to tell what size of container of ginger to use.
do a search on google for ginger and cucumber pickles. I found many recipes there.
I've misplaced my recipe and I want to can again. Our youngest daughter wouldn't eat any other pickles. The recipe I used was in the 80's and early 90's.
