Steps:
- Wash, peel and slice about 6-8 medium sized cucumbers to make 2 quarts (about 8 cups). Place them in a large deep glass or stoneware mixing bowl.
- Chop or slice 1 small onion and add to the cucumbers.
- Sprinkle 1 Tablespoon of salt over the cucumbers. Add just enough water to cover the cucumbers and place a plate on top to keep them weighted down. Let sit for two to four hours.
- Drain the cucumbers and onions in a colander and rinse them well to remove the excess salt.
- Place the cucumbers back in the same bowl and add the sugar, celery seed, and vinegar. Mix well until sugar is dissolved.
- For Freezing: You can freeze this cucumber salad right away in a freezer safe container.
- For eating the next day: Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator overnight and they are ready to eat for brunch or dinner or take to a picnic.

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!
