"While my Polish grandmother canned the world's best dill pickles, she made "crock" pickles to use up the over abundance of cucumbers. They were our favorites.

"This is called Galomki. The "L" is like "W". We make these mostly in the winter months. They are great right out of the oven but even better the longer you keep them...days later. They freeze extremely well.
