-> Well here is a great one that someone dropped on the net about a

-> are missing something.  I added the alum and decreased the mustard
-> seed from the original 2 tablespoons to about half that.  I highly
-> recommend the addition of the alum as it takes a bit of the edge off
-> of the saltiness.  The additionaly dried pepper flakes are to your
-> liking.  The flavor is very close to or even better than the
-> Claussen dills available in the states.
 
Now this I HAVE to try, at least next year.  Anything that compares
well to Claussens is definitely worth a shot.  Cold pack pickles are
the best.
