fresh pickled cucumber salad
This stays in the refrigerator for up to two months, but never lasts that long! It's better as it sits, and I love it as a snack. This will make 2 quarts.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
This pickled cucumber salad is a wonderful dish. The combination of crisp cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers is pickled in a traditional white vinegar and sugar brine. There's a hint of spice from the celery seed and mustard seed. Store any extras in mason jars and it will last in your fridge. But, we think it will go fast. It's a wonderful snack or side dish.
