Ingredients

  1. Deselect All
  2. 1 hothouse seedless cucumber
  3. 1/2 small red onion
  4. 2 tablespoons fresh picked dill sprigs
  5. 1 1/2 cups white vinegar
  6. 1 cup sugar
  7. 5 to 6 allspice berries
  8. 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, finely slice the cucumbers and red onion. Put in a mixing bowl with the dill sprigs and a pinch of salt while you prepare the pickling solution.
  2. In a small pot over medium heat, combine white vinegar, sugar, allspice and salt. Stir well until the liquid is simmering and the sugar has completely dissolved. Pour pickling liquid over red onion and cucumbers and stir to ensure everything is evenly coated. Allow to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap (press the plastic wrap down onto the cucumbers so there is no air) and refrigerate. Chill for at least 4 hours to cool completely before serving.

The Best pickles ever
Jeffrey Willis
Flavor is outstanding
Joseph Mcdonald
One of our favorites.
David Hayes
I was worried about the taste of this due to the dill… I was wrong!  I used about how the recipe called for, and only used 3/4 cup of sugar… and WOW!  It’s SOOO good!
Ian Bryant
When does the 2 tablespoons fresh picked dill sprigs go in?
Heather Smith
Made exactly as written with just the addition of a pickling spice mixture I have on hand. Just wonderful!! Perfectly crunchy and just sweet enough – my new go to recipe
Jonathan Simpson
Really like the switchup. I usually
make canned jalapeno bread and butter pickles & dill jalapeno pickles. In my daily fix is always cucumbers with onions in vinegar, water & spices.
Cant wait to try this. THANKS!
Jeff Sandoval
Very quick and looks delicious thank you
Eric Lowe
I agree with other reviewers – way too much sugar. I added 4 tablespoons per one cup. Flavor was good!!
Wayne Roberts
Way too sweet. Sugar could be cut in half and more salt added.
