Home pickling is largely a lost art, but it’s easy to revive if you take my cousin Maria’s refrigerator approach, which provides overnight delivery of crunchy, tangy pickles in a memorable mustard hue.
Ingredients
- 6 cups thinly sliced, unwaxed cucumbers (unpeeled)
- 2 cups thinly sliced sweet onions, such as Vidalia
- cup sugar
- 1½ cups apple cider vinegar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp mustard seed
- ½ tsp celery seed
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
How to Make It
- In a clean, 1-quart lidded jar, layer cucumbers and onions.
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
- Immediately pour this mixture over the layered cucumbers and onions. Cool to room temperature, then cover the jar securely and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.
- Pickles may be stored in the refrigerator for up to one month.
