1
Prepare the Cucumbers
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly under cold water. Slice them into 1/4 inch thick rounds and place them in a large bowl.
2
Prepare the Onion
Peel and slice the onion into thin rings. Add the onion rings to the bowl with the cucumbers.

3
Mix the Brine
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, sugar, salt, mustard seeds, turmeric, celery seeds, and black peppercorns.
4
Heat the Brine
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar and salt are dissolved.

5
Combine Vegetables and Brine
Once the brine is boiling, pour it over the cucumbers and onions in the bowl. Ensure all vegetables are submerged.
6
Store the Pickles
Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then transfer it to sterilized jars. Seal the jars tightly.
7
Refrigerate
Refrigerate the jars for at least 24 hours before consuming to allow the flavors to meld.
