Easy and Colorful Yellow Cucumber and Onion Pickles step by step
- Thoroughly rinse the cucumbers and ginger. Chop the top and bottom of the onion, and remove the outer skin..

- Combine the ☆ ingredients in a pot coated in enamel or other non-reactive finish, and once it is warm, add the ginger..
- Add the cucumber slices and onions and boil for about 15 minutes. If watery, set aside for about 1 hour, then boil again to reduce the liquid..

- They should keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. If you want to store them longer, thoroughly remove the moisture by brining before pickling..
- The white peppercorns serve as a key accent to the pickles, but black peppercorns would also work..
