Sweet Refrigerator Pickles Recipe 455

Steps:

• Combine water, vinegar, salt, peppercorns, yellow and brown mustard seeds, sugar, and crushed red pepper flakes in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar and salt have dissolved, 5 to 7 minutes. Allow mixture to cool, about 30 minutes.
• Cut cucumbers into even spears and pack into a 1-liter, large-mouthed glass jar. Add onion slices, dill sprigs, and garlic. Pour cooled vinegar mixture over cucumbers in the jar to cover completely. Seal with a lid and refrigerate for 24 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Combine cucumber slices and salt in a heatproof bowl and set aside for 90 minutes.
• Place cucumbers in a sieve and wash well under running cold water. Drain well, return cucumbers to the bowl, and add onion.
• Combine white sugar, white wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, mustard seeds, celery seeds, and turmeric in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and stir to dissolve sugar, about 3 minutes. Pour liquid over cucumbers and let stand for 1 hour at room temperature.

• In a large mixing bowl, toss together cucumbers, onion, and salt. Cover mixture with a clean, dry dishtowel, then cover surface with ice cubes (keeping the salted cucumbers very cold ensures crunchy pickles). Refrigerate for about 3 hours, until vegetables have released some liquid. Rinse well under cold running water to remove excess salt. Drain and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, combine vinegar, sugar, and spices. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add vegetables to pot and bring to just under a boil. Remove pan from heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to jars or other containers with tight-fitting lids. Cover vegetables with brine, cover containers, and refrigerate.
• Pickles keep, refrigerated, for several weeks.
