Fresh Pickled Cucumber Salad

Yields: 2 Quarts

Ingredients

  • 4 medium cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Veggies: Place the thinly sliced cucumbers and onions in a large bowl or divide them into two quart-sized jars.
  2. Make the Brine: In a separate bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, sugar, water, salt, and celery seed until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Combine: Pour the liquid mixture over the cucumbers and onions.
  4. Chill: Cover and refrigerate. While it can be eaten early, the flavor is “better as it sits”.
