Recipe's preparation

Pickled cucumbers (or zucchinis)

Place a large glass or ceramic bowl into the Thermomix lid, set scales to zero, and weigh in 1000g (1kg) sliced cucumbers and 400g sliced brown onions.

Sprinkle with 80g of salt and drizzle with 125g water. Then toss to combine. Set aside, covered, for 3 hours, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, sterilise about 6 large glass jars.

After 3 hours, drain and rinse cucumbers and onion using your Varoma dish, then prepare pickling liquid.

Place dill into Thermomix mixing bowl and chop 3 Seconds, Speed 7. Scrape down and repeat if neccessary.

Weigh in 400g sugar, 500g white vinegar, 1 tbsp mustard seeds, 1/4 tsp turmeric and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper.

Set timer for 10 Minutes/100 degrees/Speed 1.

While liquid comes to the boil, fill your sterilised jars with cucumbers and onions, packing down quite firmly, and leaving a 2cm headspace at the top of each jar.

Once liquid has boiled, pour enough into each jar to cover the cucumbers and carefully put lids in place.
