A wonderful flavor. Every summer I have to make some to replenish our pantry as our family loves them.

Ingredients
  • 5lbs. small cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 3 very large yellow onions (about 3 lbs. total), thinly sliced
  • 1/2 c. canning salt
  • ice cubes
  • 4 c. sugar
  • 5 c. cider vinegar
  • 2 T. mustard seed
  • 2 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 2 tsp. celery seed
  • 9 pint jars with bands & seals

Directions
  1. Place sliced cucumbers & onions in the sink. Sprinkle with canning salt. Toss to coat.
  2. Layer ice cubes over cucumber & onion mixture. Let stand for 2 hours. Do not skimp on this step as this helps ensure crisp pickles. Drain and rinse well.
  3. Wash jars, seals & bands then sterilize in water bath canner by bringing water to a full rolling boil and allowing to boil for at least 15 minutes. I also like to boil my jar tongs, funnel & magnetic lid wand.
  4. In a large pot combine vinegar, sugar, mustard seed, celery seed and turmeric.
  5. Bring mixture to a boil and let boil for 5 minutes.
  6. Add cucumber & onions and bring to boil again.
  7. Remove mixture form heat and ladle into hot jars. Leave 1/4" head space when filling. Wipe rims clean with a damp towel and place on lids & seals. Tighten until only finger tight. Do not over tighten.
  8. Place jars back into water bath canner and fill with enough water to cover jars. Cover with lid and bring to a boil. Once water has come to a full rolling boil start timer for 10 minutes. Process for the full 10 minutes.
  9. Remove from canner and allow to cool. As jars seal you will hear the lids make a "ping" sound. If jars do not seal, remove lid and seal and start with a new set. Begin processing procedure again. Let jars cool completely and store in pantry or any other cool dry place. Enjoy!
