Time 4h15m

Yield 7 pints

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 quarts cucumbers, medium size sliced (about 6lbs)
1 1/2 cups onions, sliced (about 12-15 small white, about 1 lb)
2 large garlic cloves
1/3 cup salt
24 ice cubes
4 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
1 1/2 teaspoons celery seeds
2 tablespoons mustard seeds
3 cups white vinegar

Steps:

  • Wash cucumbers thoroughly using a vegetable brush and drain on a rack.
  • Slice unpeeled cucumbers into 1/8-1/4" thick slices. I use a food processor for this step.
  • Add onions and garlic.
  • Add salt and mix thoroughly.
  • Cover with ice cubes, allow to sit for 3 hours.
  • Drain thoroughly, remove garlic.
  • Combine sugar, spices and vinegar.
  • Heat just to a boil.
  • Add cucumbers and onions and heat 5 minutes.
  • Pack loosely into clean, pint jars. Adjust lids.
  • Process in a boiling waterbath for 5 minutes.
  • Start to count processing time as soon as the water returns to boiling.
  • Times are approximate.
