PICKLED CUCUMBERS AND RED ONION

Steps:

• Using a mandoline or sharp knife, finely slice the cucumbers and red onion. Put in a mixing bowl with the dill sprigs and a pinch of salt while you prepare the pickling solution.
• In a small pot over medium heat, combine white vinegar, sugar, allspice and salt. Stir well until the liquid is simmering and the sugar has completely dissolved. Pour pickling liquid over red onion and cucumbers and stir to ensure everything is evenly coated. Allow to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap (press the plastic wrap down onto the cucumbers so there is no air) and refrigerate. Chill for at least 4 hours to cool completely before serving.

SIMPLE CUCUMBERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine oil, vinegar, and sugar in a medium to large bowl (big enough to hold all completed salad). Stir until sugar is dissolved (Note: You can heat the dressing to help keep it from separating. It is not necessary, but I do if I have time. If you heat the dressing, be sure to cool it before adding to cucumbers).
• Add cucumbers and onions to dressing. Toss to coat veggies.
• Cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving. The longer it chills, the better it gets!

CUCUMBERS & ONIONS IN VINEGAR

Steps:

• 1. Yes, the amounts are vague because it just depends on how much you want to make. You will want to taste along the way until you find the exact "taste" your family will enjoy. This is how I do it.
• 2. Slice cucumbers and onion in a bowl. For 4 people, I would use 1-2 cucumbers and maybe 1/4 of a medium onion. For my family, I cut the onion rings into half.
• 3. Pour apple cider vinegar over the cucumbers and onions. I use about 1/3 cup to start.
• 4. Then I add a splash of water, about 1/6 of a cup, or half of the amount of vinegar.
• 5. This next step is totally CONTROVERSIAL in West Virginia, so I hesitate to start another Civil War and divide the state, but I sprinkle in a little sugar, maybe a Tablespoon.
• 6. Stir together and add salt & pepper, to taste. You can serve it immediately or cover the bowl and let it "set" in the refrigerator for a half hour or so. Mom always made it first, then fixed dinner while the cucumbers soaked up the deliciousness in the fridge. Serve with every summer dinner and make more wonderful food memories with your family. =^..^=

Steps:

• 1. Layer sliced cucumber and onions alternately into bowl, set aside.
• 2. Mix remaining ingredients together, stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour dressing mixture over cucumber and onion mixture. Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours to marry flavors.
• 3. Notes: This recipe can easily be doubled. If my cucumber and onion are large I will double the dressing ingredients. I like the dressing poured over tomato chunks, chopped cucumber chunks, chopped green onions, green and red pepper chunks and sliced celery for another salad variation. Enjoy!
