Ingredients:
1 pound zucchini/summer squash mix
1 large yellow onion
Kosher salt
2 cups cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed mustard seeds (optional, I didn't use this the first time, maybe it makes it better?)
1 teaspoon ground turmeric

Steps:

1. Slice the zucchini and squash and onion as thin as possible 2. Brine the above mixture: Place in a covered large pot and cover with lots of salt and water. The water should taste very salty. Let sit for 1 hr or more (at this point they taste awesome and you could just serve this) 3. Combine the rest of the ingredients and simmer on the stove for 5 minutres. Cool, until warm (hot liquid will cook the veggies and ruin the crunch we are going for). 4. After bine as sat for around an hour, dump it - at this point the vegetables should taste excellent. 5. Pour vinegar mixture into the pot with vegetables. Cover and let this sit for at least a day. Because we are not jaring and heating, you should not keep these around forever (like they would even last).
