Ingredients:

Serving

6 cups thinly sliced scrubbed cucumbers
2 cups thinly sliced onions , separated into slivers
1 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp salt ( preferably kosher)
2 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp celery seed
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1 -3 whole unbroken dried hot red chili pepper, long skinny oriental type,to taste (optional)

Directions:

Toss cucumber and onion slices together in a large bowl.
Combine remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan, stirring well to dissolve sugar and salt.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves.
Pour hot vinegar mixture over cucumber mixture, add red peppers if using, and allow to cool, tossing several times.
Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for several days, turning once or twice a day for four days.
Actually, the pickles are quite good after only a couple hours, but they just aint really pickles yet.
Pickles can be stored in the refrigerator for several months.
They will continue to get spicier the longer the hot red pepper (s) remains in the brine; remove when heat level reaches your preference.
