Cucumbers and onions

Yummy pickleness

This is a recipe I know is widespread and loved by many. This is just the way I was always taught to make it. The amounts of each ingredient for the "dressing" really just depend on how many cukes you have and how big they are, so I'm not listing amounts in the ingredients, but instead telling how much of each I used for this particular batch.

My stepmom makes these at the time. I finally got the recipe. Think bread and butter with onions or anything else you choose.

I adopted a recipe that I saw in a book about 10 years ago.※ If you can, use premade pickling spice to make authentic and spicy pickles. But if you cannot find it, use a mixture of 5 grains of black pepper corn, 1 red chili pepper, and 1 bay leaf.※ You can eat it on the first day, but it's best after 3 days. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

This is the way my mom cooks cucumbers and it's so delicious.

Wasabi adds a delicious accent and a punch to dishes.If you have time, mix the miso and wasabi, add the cucumber and marinate. The flavors will penetrate the cucumber and it turns into a quick pickle. Add mayonnaise just before serving. For 1 cucumber's worth. Recipe by ayureo

I learned how to do this from an old family friend. She is an older sister to one of my best friends and has begun to slip away from us as she has dementia. I will always treasure this old recipe. Jane Crum is someone I admire.(August 17, 2019)

My friend taught me how to make this dish.Make sure you pour the sauce over the cucumbers while still it's hot. Recipe by taerin

I'm addicted to this stuff!!

Japanese-style mustard pickles are delicious, so I thought another more "Western" version using mustard should be great too.By slicing the cucumber diagonally, it will wilt faster.By using a plastic bag, you'll be able to prevent your hands from getting dirty.I added a little sugar for sweetness. Serve these just like you would any other kind of pickle. For 2 servings. Recipe by hitkat

My mother used to make this every summer. It's a family favorite.I simply cut up the cucumber roughly, but my mother like to make thin slices into it so it would resemble an accordion. The marinade can be reused as a salad dressing or sauce if it hasn't gotten too watery. Recipe by Setsumika

I think I am addicted to this as well as other salads. So easy to make, healthy as well. In this photo you will see bits of finely shredded cheese. Ooops, I was making broccoli salad also and accidentally put the cheese, flax seed, sliced cherry tomatoes, and red beans in my onion and cucumber salad. That will teach me, to either keep the two recipes far apart, or only make one at a time 😊. This is my own amount of ingredients.

I love cucumbers. I wanted something green on the dinner table, and this is what I was able to make quickly.The cucumbers will become watery when sitting in your fridge, so make sure to prepare right before serving. Recipe by Harukomachi

A wonderful palette cleaner just something fresh and different.

My mother used to make a similar recipe when I was younger. I was never able to get the recipe from her so this is the best recreation of it.

It may not be for everyone, but we like it if you think the vinegar is to much cut back to half.

I don't like too tangy of cucumber salad. This salad is just right but I am sure that if it is too tangy you could add more water and if it is not tangy enough just add more vinegar.

This is a salad I make ALL summer. This is just the basic recipe but you can think outside the box with this and add Parmesan, pepperoni, provolone, salami, additional veggies like roasted peppers or celery etc etc. Its so simple but delicious!

From middle school to high school, I would often visit a Protestant church.I recently recalled how the pastor of the church would always serve these pickles during meals, and taught me how to make them.While they are on the sweet side, they taste almost exactly as I remembered.Try it during the summer when you need a way to consume your stock of cucumbers.If you drain the cucumbers after brining, use less seasonings overall.This recipe makes a sweet pickle, so adjust to taste.You could also use powdered white pepper, but in that case, reduce it to about 1 teaspoon.They will last in the refrigerator for up to a week.

This recipe is not an original. I learnt the basics from my Aunty and have since altered some ingredients and methods which I found by trial and and error and my good friend google. For instance I learnt from the internet that if you soak your onions in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then put them in the sink with cold water, peeling them is so much easier. I use a pressure cooker to sterilize my jars. You can add up to 1 tbspn of brown sugar to the vinegar mix to sweeten a little. Use any vinegar you prefer, this is a good recipe to experiment with. Omit the chilli flakes if you dont like them but the finished onions are not very hot and the chilli does give a nice subtle tang. One other tip. If you double up on the recipe, no need to use double the amount of salt. I use just a pinch or so more only when I prepare 2 kilos of onions.

great addition to sandwiches and such, so easy to make, so beautiful if you use red onions

This one goes out to Auntie Al. By the time you walk away, a party tray full of these refreshing appetizers will disappear. #america

These are easy and go great in Salads, Sandwiches, Wraps, Soups, Flatbreads, and with grilled meats.

When I brought a bag of ten of these lightly pickled cucumbers to a barbecue they quickly disappeared.Add the ginger and sesame oil at least 10 minutes after you season the cucumber with salt to allow the cucumber flavour to shine through.When in a rush, you can use less salt than usual and add the sesame oil and ginger a bit earlier. Please adjust the pickling time according to the size of the cucumbers. For 1 bowl. Recipe by nabeko44kazu.

This recipe is great for hot days and always a hit at bbqs......good way to use fresh veggies from the garden and very simple to throw together ahead of time :-)

Stole this from the internet.

Everyone in my family loved this dish!Although using a plastic bag would pickle more evenly, I make and serve it in a Tupperware. The longer the pickling, the better the flavor.When pickling for a long time, it's good to add ichimi chili pepper powder before serving. Recipe by Team yokin

We would occasionally have pickled beets from time to time. We could eat them hot or cold, just loved them. I love to repurpose jars
