How to make pickled cucumber

Slice the cucumber thin.

Like so.

Chop the dill.

Place the dill in a bowl.

Add the vinegar...

..sugar and salt..

..and white pepper. Mix and pour this over the cucumber slices.

The seasoning can be varied; for a more Asian touch, add chili and perhaps ginger. I've also seen a nice version with elderberry punch and apple cider vinegar.

Like so.

Cover the cucumber with plastic wrap.

Add some kind of weight; I used a large pot that I filled with water. Press it at least 1 hour.

Keep in a jar in the fridge until you have something to serve it to, such as:

Meatballs, meatloaf or on a sandwich with liver pate.

It's also very nice with pickled red onions to burgers or pickled carrots to chicken or fish. Try it!
