A gift from a friend turned into something delicious.
I had a visit from a friend! She brought a cucumber as a gift!
Her garden was producing more than she could use, so she wanted to share!
So instead of buying an artisan pickled cucumber for $10, I made my own for pennies!
I decided to pickle it! I wanted to make a pickled cucumber that would go very well in a burger, so I mixed it with a small onion, chili, thyme and some drops of liquid smoke.
The relative high acidity is going to be a perfect match to the fat from the burger patty and the spice mix should paire well with the other ingredients in the burger.
Recipe.
1 large cucumber, mushy center removed, cut into coarse slices!1 small onion, cut into similar slices.
Mixed.
Pickling fluid.
1 cup of vinegar.
1/2 cup of water.
1/2 cup of sugar.
1 tbsp salt.
1 tsp chili.
1 tsp thyme.
10 drops of liquid smoke.
Boil.
Fill rinsed glass to the rim with the cucumber & onion mix!
Pour over the hot pickling fluid (vinegar, water, suger and spices), make sure to fill to the rim!
Fit the lid tight.
Let cool.
Store in the fridge.
