My good friend Pat gave me this wonderful recipe. They have a great sweet flavor and are a nice addition to any picnic spread. These freeze well, and you can also make them with summer yellow squash, which I don't peel. A great way to use up cukes in an exploding vegetable garden. Ingredients:
8 cups cucumbers, peeled and very thinly sliced |
1 large red onion, very thinly sliced |
2 tablespoons salt |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup cider vinegar |
Directions:
1. Soak the cucumber and onion slices in water to which the salt has been added for 2 hours. Drain thoroughly. 2. Mix the sugar and vinegar together and pour over the cucumbers and onions. Mix. Store in a plastic container with lid, in the refrigerator. They get better after a day or two. |
