Sweet and spicy, these pickles are the perfect addition to any sandwich or burger, and are exceptionally tasty on their own as a crunchy snack.
Ingredients
  • 5½ cups (about 1½ pounds) cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1½ tablespoons fine sea salt
  • 1 cup sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • ½ cup apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons mustard seeds
  • ½ teaspoon celery seeds
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
Instructions
  1. Combine cucumbers and salt in a large bowl; cover and chill 1½ hours. Transfer cucumbers to a colander and rinse thoroughly under cold water. Place cucumbers back into the bowl, and add onion; toss.
  2. Combine the sugars, vinegars, mustard and celery seeds, and ground turmeric in a medium saucepan. Simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the cucumbers and onions; let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight before enjoying. Be sure to store in the fridge.
Notes / Variations
This recipe works just as well when cut in half - whether you're trying it out for the first time or even if you just want a small batch of them! And, as always, when you're running low on pickles, slice up a few more cucumbers and toss them in the brine.
