8 cups sliced unpeeled cucumbers
2 cups sliced onion (optional)
2 cups cut bell peppers (option - can also add banana peppers)
1 Tablespoon salt
1 and 1/2 cups white vinegar
2 teaspoons celery seed
2 teaspoons mustard seed
2 cups of sugar
In a large Plastic or Glass Bowl (do not use metal bowl) combine cucumbers, onions, and
peppers. Sprinkle them with salt and mix them well so that the salt covers as much of them
as possible. Cover with towel/paper towel and let stand for 1 hour. After that drain off the juice
that forms in the bottom of the bowl.
In another bowl combine your sugar, vinegar, celery seed and mustard seed. Stir that until
sugar is completely dissolved.
Place cucumbers in a bowl or large gallon jar and pour vinegar mixture over them. You may
want to stir them just a bit. Cover and put in refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours. These should be
good for up to six weeks.
