I love pickles. Finding this recipe has made fresh pickles a staple in my house. The best thing is that I can make one jar at a time using whatever cucumbers happen to be best priced at the time. I’m partial to small pickling cukes or European cukes, so tend to plan these pickles around their availability. I’ve also given these as gifts, and they’ve been received enthusiastically!
3 pickles (cucumbers) unpeeled, slice thin
1 onion sliced thin
Mix:
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup vinegar
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp celery seed
Pour 1/2 above mixture into glass container that has a tight-fitting lid. Put cucumbers and onions in jar. Pour remaining liquid in jar. Close lid, turn upside down in dish for 24 hours, turn back for 24 hours. Keep in
refrigerator the whole time.
