1. 1

   Scrub cucumbers with a brush. Cut off and discard a thin slice from each end. Using a sharp knife, slice cucumbers as thin as possible or slice in a food processor. Layer cucumbers, onions and pepper in a large bowl, sprinkling salt on each layer. Cover and let stand 1 hour.

2. 2

   Thoroughly wash and scald 4 (1-pint) jars. Keep hot until needed. Prepare lids as manufacturer directs. Drain vegetables; rinse in cold water and drain thoroughly. In a large kettle, heat vinegar, sugar, mustard seed, tumeric and cloves until sugar is dissolved, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil. Add vegetables and heat, but do not boil. Remove from heat. Immediately pack vegetables into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Pour hot syrup over vegetables, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe jar rims; seal with hot lids and screw bands. Process 5 minutes in a simmering water bath. Makes about 4 (1-pint) jars.
