Refrigerator Pickels
This is one of my favorites in the summer when I have fresh cucumbers, onions and green peppers.
9 cups thin sliced cucumbers
1 cup onion
1 cup green peppers
1 tablespoon salt
Slice cucumbers, onion and peppers and put in bowl. Sprinkle with salt and let stand 1 hr. After they have stood 1 hr drain the water and add the syrup (recipe below).
Syrup for pickels
2 cups sugar
1 cup vinegar
1 tablespoon whole mustard seed
1 tablespoon whole celery seed
Mix everything together in med sauce pan. Cook on med heat and bring to boil. I usually boil mine for about 1 minute. Let cool. After it has cooled add to cucumbers. I usually start by slicing everything and placing it to the side. Then I go ahead and make my syrup. By the time the syrup is cooled it's time to drain the cucumbers.
