Preparation

Step 1

Mix the salt, vinegar and water in a non-reactive bowl. Stir until salt is completely dissolved. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix.

Pack the cucumbers, onion, jalapeno and cherry peppers into three clean quart jars. Pour brine into jars so that cucumbrs are completely covered. (If you run out of brine, just top off the jars with a little water, leaving about 1/2 inch headroom). Screw on lids, tip jar to distribute spices and allow to ferment at room temperature for at least 3 days, then refrigerate another 5 days before eating.

They will keep several weeks chilled.
