    5 cups white distilled vinegar (5% acidity)
    1 cup water
    2 cups sugar
    2 teaspoons canning salt
    7 garlic cloves
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

    2 lbs carrots, peeled and sliced
    1 onion, peeled and sliced
    8 teaspoons mustard seeds
    4 teaspoons celery seeds
Preparation
    Combine vinegar, water, sugar and salt in a large pot. Bring to boil then gently boil for 3 minutes.
    Add garlic, dill, peppercorns, carrots and onions and simmer till carrots are still crisp about 10 minutes.
    Place 2 teaspoons mustard seed and 1 teaspoon celery seed in the bottom of each clean, hot pint jar.
    Pack carrot mixture into sterilized 8-8 ounce jars. Leaving 1/2 - 1 inch head space. Remove air bubbles. wipe rim and place lids and rings on.
    Place in a hot water bath for 15 minutes 0-1000 ft.
    20 minutes at1001-6000 ft or above 6000 ft for 25 minutes.
    Remove jars lifting the jars out of the water and let them cool on a wooden cutting board or a towel, without touching or bumping them in a draft-free place. Remove the rings and wipe rims. They do taste great now but wait a couple days and they`ll be so much better.
