Directions
Do not pare cucumbers; slice thin. Add onions, peppers and garlic. Add salt, cover with cracked ice; mix well. Let stand three hours and drain well. Combine remaining ingredients; pour over cucumber mixture. Heat just to a boil. Seal in hot sterilized pint jars. Makes 8 pints. This is one of the easiest types of pickles to make, and they remain crisp for several years.
