This is a recipe my mother use to make many years ago. I would normally say that it was one of my favourites but all of Mom's pickles were amazing! Posting it here now that I have the recipe so that it is at easy reference when I want to make another batch! Preparation time does not include allowing the vegetables & salt time to sit.
Ingredients:
12 medium cucumbers (english or field cucumbers)
5 medium onions
1/4 cup pickling salt
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 cup water
Directions:
1. Was cucumbers and peel inions. Cut both into 1/4 inch rings. Arrange in layers, sprinkling with salt on each layer. Let stand 2 to 3 hours. Drain.
2. Combine remaining ingredients and heat to a boil. Let simmer for 5 minutes. Add cucumbers and onions and allow to simmer 5 to 8 minutes. Pack into hot sterilized jars.
