1
Prepare the Cucumbers
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, onion, and kosher salt. Toss to coat the cucumbers and onions in salt. Let sit for 1 hour to draw out excess moisture.
2
Make the Brine
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, apple cider vinegar, mustard seeds, turmeric, celery seeds, and black peppercorns. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
3
Combine and Refrigerate
After the cucumbers have rested, rinse them under cold water to remove excess salt. Drain well. Add the cucumbers and onions to the brine and stir to combine. Let cool to room temperature before transferring to jars.
4
Chill
Seal the jars and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before consuming. Pickles will taste better after a few days!
