A delightful twist on traditional pickles, these spiced cinnamon sweet pickles are perfect for adding a unique flavor to your meals.
Peel the cucumbers, remove the ends, and cut into desired shapes like rings or sticks.
Use a sharp knife for clean cuts and uniform shapes.
Mix water and pickling lime in a large bowl.
Ensure the lime is fully dissolved in the water.
Soak the cucumber pieces in the lime solution for 24 hours.
Stir occasionally to ensure even soaking.
Drain the cucumbers and rinse them thoroughly under cold water three times.
Rinsing well is crucial to remove excess lime.
Combine alum, vinegar, sugar, and cinnamon sticks in a pot and bring to a simmer.
Stir continuously to dissolve the sugar completely.
Add the cucumbers to the syrup and simmer for 2 hours.
Keep the pot covered to retain the flavors.
Let the cucumbers sit in the syrup overnight.
This allows the cucumbers to absorb the flavors fully.
Reheat the syrup and cucumbers daily for 3 days.
Ensure the syrup covers the cucumbers completely each time.
Pack the cucumbers into sterilized jars and seal tightly.
Leave a small gap at the top of the jar for expansion.
