Great Aunt Vera's Sweet Mustard Pickle

My grandmother's sister's recipe... It's at least 70 years old. I usually hate pickle but i love this one :) excellent use for all the home grown green tomatoes that never go red. Great on crackers w/cheese, in a cold meat sandwich etc. It does make a lot though... But you shouldn't have a problem giving it as gifts tc.. Our family and friends are always coming back for more:) this makes at least 19 large jars.. So i'd recommend cutting the recipe down to 1/4 if you want to make this the first time..)
