Marcia Laun Recipe Collection
30 to 35 Medium sized cucumbers
8 Large White onions
2 Large Sweet peppers
1/2 C. Salt
5 C. Cider Vinegar
5 C. Sugar
2 Tbs. Mustard seed
1 tsp. Tumeric
1/2 tsp. Cloves
Wash cukes and slice as you wish. Chop onions and peppers; combine with cukes and add salt. Let stand 3 hours then drain. Combine vinegar, sugar and spices in large preserving kettle, bring to a boil. Add drained cukes; heat thoroughly but DO NOT boil. Pack in sterilized jars and seal at once.
Next time I make these delicious pickles, I will cook outdoors. The odor permeates every corner of house when cooked inside. (Ugh)
