For a larger batch adjust measurements.
1 large organic cucumber (I used an English cuke)
1/3 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
3 TB apple cider vinegar
¼ tsp. sea salt
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1/8 tsp. mustard powder
1/8 tsp. (or a little more) celery seed
some green onion pieces
fresh dill
pinch of turmeric
I used a small amount of dry mixed: red pepper flakes, thyme, dehydrated onion, orange peel
and for sweetener I used NuStevia
Clean cucumber and slice to desired thickness.
Put slices in a glass bowl – you’ll be pouring boiling liquid over them.
In a heavy saucepan over low heat combine water and vinegars, add salt, then whisk together well.
Increase heat and add: mustard powder or seed, celery seed, and turmeric. Whisk well and cook until it almost boils.
Add spices and continue whisking until it reaches a boil.
Remove from heat and whisk in sweetener.
Carefully pour over the cucumber slices.
Let cool uncovered for a few hours.
Once they reach room temperature you can transfer the pickles to a jar or keep them in the glass bowl. Cover well and refrigerate overnight.
Enjoy!
