In a gallon Jar, slice onions, as many as you like, slice cucumbers(unpeeled).Mix together

4 cups sugar
4cups vinegar (I use white 5%)
1/2 cup canning salt
1 1/2 teas tumeric, celery seed, mustard seek

Pour over cucumbers and onions, let stand about 2 days before eating. Stir every day, keep covered and add more cucumbers and onion as you use. I keep this going all summer. The pickles stay crisp

duckydo - Instead of the salt and spices can you just use pickling spices.

A recipe you will not believe Dill pickles turned Sweet.

Purchase 1 jar Kosher whole dill or Dill pickles, or whatever dill you like.
Drain, rinse pickles, cut in chunks

In jar put 1 1/2 c sugar, 1/2 c vinegar, 1 T pickle spice, add chunks, shake until sugar is pretty much dissolved. Once a day for seven days shake real good, on the 8th day eat. They are not as good on the 7th day, something magical about the 8th day. I made these for a friend, a guy who does not like sweet pickles, I did not tell him they were sweet, he now likes only these.

find somewhere that sells Mt Olive *or any name brand Sour pickles. Get a gallon jar. Drain, slice thinly..salad shooter works best. drain..squeeze, use paper towels to soak out any excess fluid. Put back in cleaned jar..pour 5 lbs of sugar on top. Let sit until all sugar is absorbed by the pickles..turn jar often. Once the sugar is all dissolved..put in smaller containers and store in the fridge.
