William Pollock's Eat Happy: Pickle: Kinda Sorta Sours

Notes

If there were a picnic battle, fall in behind General Brown. Alton serves up "Kinda Sorta Sours" which sound like something pulled from a cooler reverentially at certain BBQs.

Ingredients

1/2	onion, thinly sliced
2	medium cucumbers, thinly sliced
4	garlic cloves, smashed
1 cup	water
1 cup	cider vineager
1/2 cup	champagne vinegar (or other light vinnegar?)
1/2 cup	sugar
2 Tbl + 2 tsp	kosher salt
1 tsp	mustard seeds
1/4 tsp	tumeric
1 tsp	celery seeds
1 tsp	pickling spice

Preparation

In a clean spring-top jar combine onion, cucumbers and garlic cloves.

Boil water, cider and champagne vinegar, sugar, salt, mustard seeds, tumeric, celery seeds and pickling spice together in a non-reactive pot or pan. Bring to a boil and simmer for four minutes.

Carefully pour pickling liquid over vegetable mixture, filling to top of jar.

Cool to room temperature before adding any additional liquid and refrigerate.

[Should note: there should likely be some notes on the shelf life of such a product and its general care and handling during its lifetime]
