2 dozen large cucumbers, sliced, and boiled in vinegar enough to cover them, one hour. Set aside in the hot vinegar.

To each gallon of cold vinegar allow—

1 lb. sugar.

1 tablespoonful of cinnamon.

1 teaspoonful ginger.

1 teaspoonful black pepper.

1 teaspoonful celery-seed.

1 teaspoonful of mace.

1 teaspoonful allspice.

1 teaspoonful cloves.

1 tablespoonful turmeric.

1 tablespoonful horseradish, scraped.

1 tablespoonful garlic, sliced.

½ teaspoonful cayenne pepper.

Put in the cucumbers and stew two hours.

The pickle will be ready for use so soon as it is cold.
