4 quarts of medium cucumbers
3 onions
1 green pepper
1 sweet red pepper
1/3 cup coarse medium salt ( not iodized)
3 cups of vinegar or apple cider vinegar
5 cups of sugar
3 cloves of garlic
1 1/2 tsp turmeric
1 1/2 tsp celery salt
2 TB mustard seed
Slice cucumbers, cut onions in half and then into strips. Combine them and mix in a large bowl. Sprinkle on the salt and cover with cracked ice. Let stand 3 hours and then drain and rinse. Combine vinegar and the other ingredients in the pan and heat to a boil. Add cucumber mixture and heat just to a boil. DO NOT cook it. Put in jars and seal by turning jars upside down for 5 minutes.
