My two sons and I love these. If they had their way I would have to make 'em in a washtub! I experimented, once and added bell pepper squares. Now, they want carrot slices, tomatoes. You can use virtually any veggie. If cucumbers give you indigestion, try scoring them lengthwise with the tines of a fork. Just deep enough to see the marks. Just below the skin, in the meat, lies a layer of heartburn . An elderly British friend of my Dad taught me this recipe and that tip. That man could COOK. Ingredients:
3 -4 large cucumbers, peeled and scored with a fork,lengthways,sliced crossways,medium thick |
1 large white onions or 1 large yellow onion, quartered,then sliced crossways,1/2 inch thick |
2 bell peppers, any color,cut in 1 inch squares. |
1 1/2 cups white vinegar |
3/4 cup water |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
Directions:
1. Pour vinegar and water in large left-over bowl, add spices and mix well.
2. Add vegetables to bowl.
3. More water and vinegar may be added, maintaining a 2 vinegar to 1 water ratio, to cover vegetables.
4. May be adjusted to your own pucker power.
5. We like ours tart.
6. Cover and chill at least 4 hours before serving.
7. Avoid metal bowls.
