Steps:

• Combine cucumbers, onions and salt. Let mixture soak for 3 hours. In a saucepan, warm the vinegar and sugar; stir to dissolve sugar. Drain cucumbers and add to vinegar mixture. Ladle into plastic freezer containers and freeze. When ready to use, defrost and serve chilled.

Steps:

• 1. Slice cucumbers and onions into large bowl and mix. I use my mandolin and the thin slice blade to slice the cucumbers and onions. You do not need to peel the cucumbers first. I use my 13 quart stainless steel bowl to make this. Sprinkle with salt. Pour enough water over cucumbers and onions to just cover. I use nursery water, found in the baby food section for all of my canning as our water is too soft. Let set 2 hours. Drain in colander, but do not rinse. Put cucumbers and onions back in bowl.
• 2. Mix sugar and white vinegar and pour over cucumber - onion mixture. Stir and let set about 15 minutes. Put in freezer bags or containers and freeze. I usually put about 3 1/2 cups of the mixture into each quart bag. This recipe will make 10 quart bags. To use, thaw bag in refrigerator, pour into bowl and serve. Refrigerate leftovers. These stay crisp and taste just like fresh cucumber salad!

Steps:

• Place the cucumbers in a bowl; sprinkle with salt, and refrigerate 24 hours. Rinse and drain the cucumbers, pressing out as much water as possible. Place the cucumbers in a bowl, and stir in the sugar and vinegar. Refrigerate 24 hours more. Place in freezer containers and freeze.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in large bowl.
• Refrigerate for 24 hours.
• Put in containers and freeze with the brine.
• Just defrost to serve.
• Tip: To save space and avoid freezer burn, I freeze this overnight in shallow freezer containers. Then, defrost slighty (or dip in a hot water bath) to release the food from the container. Seal the block of frozen food in a ziplock or seal-a-meal bag, label and stack back in the freezer until ready to use. This works great for all kinds of foods!

Steps:

• Combine cucumbers, onions and salt set aside for 4 hours. Add vinegar and sugar to a heavy saucepan heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Drain cucumbers add to vinegar mixture. Spoon into a freezer-safe container with a lid freeze. Remove from freezer to partially thaw before serving.From "5 Ingredients or Less!" Copyright Gooseberry Patch.
