Description
Delightful homemade overnight bread and butter pickles with a perfect balance of sweetness and tang, ideal for complementing meals or as a snack.
Ingredients
- 4 to 6 pickling cucumbers
- 1 sweet onion
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp mustard seed
- 1/2 tsp celery seed
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Begin by slicing the cucumbers into thin rounds and the onions as thinly as possible. Place them in a large bowl, allowing them to mingle together.
- In another bowl, whisk the remaining ingredients, namely white sugar, brown sugar, salt, ground black pepper, mustard seed, celery seed, turmeric, and apple cider vinegar.
- Pour this mixture over the cucumber and onion slices. Gently mix to ensure every slice gets coated with the sweet and tangy marinade.
- Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the flavors to meld overnight for at least 12 hours.
- Once your pickles are ready, store them in air-tight containers, and keep them in the refrigerator. They can last for up to one month.
