Joanies Refrigerator Pickles

We really enjoyed these pickles over the summer and even still have some in the fridge! 

Joanies Refrigerator Pickles

5 cups sugar

4 cups vinegar

1/3 cup salt

1 1/2 tsp. mustard seed

1/2 tsp. celery salt

1 tsp. tumeric

cucumbers

onions***

Directions:

Fill a 1 gallon jar 3/4 with thinly sliced cucumbers and 1/4 with thinly sliced onion alternating each and packing them in tightly. We have also used 4 quart jars instead and it worked just fine. In a large pot combine the rest of the ingredients and warm slightly until the sugar is dissolved. Fill each jar with the liquid mixture, cover and place in the fridge. They will be ready in 1 week but will last a LONG time if you have room to store them in your fridge.

***Note: We have also made this recipe without onions for those picky eaters.
