  • Place cucumbers, onions, and pickling spice into a large bowl; pour in water. Cover and let stand for 6 to 8 hours, or overnight.
  • Inspect six pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until pickles are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Drain liquid from mixture, then transfer cucumbers, onions, and any pickling spice to a large saucepan. Add sugar, turmeric, and celery seed, then pour in vinegar, adjusting the amount if needed so it covers everything. Bring to a boil.
  • Pack pickles into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly. Let cool to room temperature, then store in the refrigerator.
