Best Sunday Afternoon Tea Quick Pickled Cucumber And Onion Recipes
SUNDAY AFTERNOON TEA QUICK PICKLED CUCUMBER AND ONION
This should be called Mum's quick pickled cucumber and onion, as this is what she made EVERY Sunday afternoon for tea-time! We always had this alongside fresh bread and butter, boiled eggs, cold cuts of meat, fruit cake, scones, sometimes a tin of red salmon and always a pot of tea! Wonderful memories, and an easy and tasty pickle for tea-time food. This is also wonderful with picnic food, smoked salmon or an assorted cheese board.

Steps:
- Use a fork to run through the surface of the cucumber, vertically downwards, to obtain a fluted pattern when sliced.

- Combine sugar and vinegar together. Add to cucumber and onion slices and mix well.
- Decant into a plastic container, and refrigerate overnight or for a few hours before serving.
- Garnish with mint or parsley.
- Keeps in the fridge for a week.
