Crisp Refrigerator Cucumber Slices step by step

1. In a LARGE bowl combine sugar, vinegar, salt, mustard seed, and alum. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside..
2. Wash cucumbers thoroughly. I use baking soda in my water because that is the main ingredient in the commercial vegetable washes..
3. I like to score mine by running.the tines of a fork down each side. Makes them look a little more decorative. Then cut into 1/4" slices..
4. Cut onions into 1/8 to 1/4" slices. Combine cucumbers and onions in vinegar mixture. Let set for 15 to 20 minutes so the mixture shrinks a little as the cucumbers and onions release some of their juices..
5. Put into containers and store in refrigerator for up to two weeks..
