These cucumber slices for winter are made with thinly sliced, unpeeled cucumbers, onion, and bell pepper mixed with vinegar, sugar, and Vegeta vegetable seasoning. Let the mixture stand for an hour until the cucumbers release their juices, then pack it into jars with the juices and process in boiling water for just 7 minutes.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Slice the vegetables

    Wash the cucumbers and slice them into thin rounds without peeling them, using the slicing side of a grater. Slice the onion the same way. Remove the seeds from the bell peppers and cut them into small pieces.

  2. Mix

    Mix the vegetables with the vinegar, sugar, and Vegeta. Let stand for an hour so the cucumbers release their juices.

  3. Pack into jars

    Pack the salad into clean jars along with the juices released by the cucumbers, and seal the jars tightly.

  4. Process the jars

    Place the jars in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Process for 7 minutes from the time the water reaches a boil. Let the jars cool, then store in a cool, dark place.

Tip: If using overgrown cucumbers with large seeds, scoop out the seeds with a spoon before slicing, as they release a lot of water. Add the vinegar gradually and taste as you go; the brine should be sweet and sour.
