Ingredients




6 smalls cucumbers
1 small white onion
1 cup white vinegar
2 cups water*
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation

1 Thinly slice the cucumbers into rounds and place in a 7 or 8 cup container. 2 Cut the onion into quarter round slices, keeping the pieces about 1/4" thick. 3 Pour vinegar over cucumbers. Add as much water as you need to submerge the cucumbers. 4 Add sugar, salt and pepper, stirring to combine. 5 Refrigerate until ready to eat, preferrably overnight. This gives the cucumbers a chance to marinate and the flavors to blend. 6 The vinegar/water ratio is based on our love for vinegar. It was strong, so if you're not a huge fan of vinegar, use less and add more water. You can also add more sugar to take away some of the sting.
