Ingredients
- 2 pounds pickling cucumbers
- 1 medium onion
- 3 tablespoons kosher salt
- 2 ½ cups white vinegar
- 1 ¼ cups sugar substitute (cup-for-cup measure such as Splenda)
- 1 tablespoon mustard seed
- 1 tablespoon celery seed
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- ½ teaspoon whole cloves
Instructions
- Prepare the cucumbers - wash thoroughly removing any dirt from the skin of the cucumbers. Remove a thin (1/16 inch) slice from the blossom end of each cucumber and discard.
- Slice cucumbers into rounds approximately ¼ inch thick.
- Prepare the onion - peel the onion and slice into ¼ inch thick slices. Separate the onion rings.
- Place the cucumbers and onions in a large bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Toss so that the salt is distributed throughout the vegetables. Allow to stand at room temperature for two hours.
- Drain the cucumbers and onions in a colander. Rinse thoroughly and drain again. Spread the vegetables on a double thickness of paper towels and pat dry with additional paper towels.
- Prepare 3 one-pint (or 6 half-pint) jars by washing in hot soapy water and rinsing well. Prepare lids and rings according to manufacturer’s directions.
- Fill a boiling water canner ¾ full with water. Add the clean jars to the canner and bring to the boil. Keep lids warm in a pan of barely simmering water.
- Meanwhile, combine the vinegar, sugar substitute, mustard seed, celery seed, turmeric, and cloves in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Add the cucumbers and onions and allow the mixture to return to a boil.
- Working with one jar at a time, use a slotted spoon to pack vegetables into hot jars filling to ¼ inch of tops. Ladle in pickling liquid to cover the vegetables.
- Wipe the jar rim with a moistened paper towel and apply a canning lid and ring. Rings should be just fingertip tight. Return the filled jar to the canner and continue until all jars are packed.
- When all jars are filled, lower the jars into the boiling water canner. Water should cover the tops of the jars by 1 to 2 inches. Cover the canner and bring the water to a gentle boil. Process for 15 minutes.
- Remove jars from the canner and place on a towel to cool completely. After the jars are cool, check to make sure the seals are complete.
- Store in a cool, dark place for up to one year. Refrigerate jars after opening.
Notes
- Storage: Storage cool, sealed jars in a dark place for up to one year. Store in the refrigerator after opening.
- Use only pickling type cucumbers for your pickles (often labeled "kirby" or "salad" cucumbers).
- When preparing the cucumbers, remove about a 1/16" slice from the blossom end of cucumbers before pickling.
- You must use the water bath canning process if you wish to store the pickles out from under refrigeration.
