Pour 1 cup of salt into the other gallon jar. Then fill the jar to the top with water. Mix well. Pour this salted water solution into the jar with the pickles, filling to the top. (The amount of water needed for a gallon jar will vary depending on size and amount of pickles in the jar; the ratio is ¼ cup salt to 1 quart water.) Cover tightly and keep in a dark room or closet. They will be half sour after one week (and completly sour after 2 weeks.) JEWISH-FOOD digest 298
