Bread and butter pickles are one of my favorite cucumber pickles. I like a little red pepper in my pickles, but you can leave it out or add a little more. Ingredients: 4 pounds pickling cucumbers 1 large onion, quartered, sliced about 1/4-inch thickness 1/3 cup kosher salt 3 cups cider vinegar 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds 2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds, or use half pickling spices 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional Preparation: Wash cucumbers and cut off the ends. Slice crosswise into 1/8-inch slices. Toss in a large bowl with the salt and onion slices; cover with about 4 to 6 cups of ice cubes. Cover and let stand for 4 hours or refrigerate overnight. Prepare the boiling water bath. Add water to a large canner with rack and heat to about 180°. The water should be high enough to be at least 1 inch above the filled jars. I usually fill it about halfway and I keep a kettle or saucepan of water boiling on another burner to add
