Dilled Cucumber Slices

Submitted by: Robyn Hinderman

1 large cucumber, peeled if desired & sliced thin
1 medium onion, sliced thin & separated into rings
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
Pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon dill seed (not dill weed)

Put sliced cucumber and onion rings in a medium sized bowl. Combine remaining ingredients in a small saucepan. Heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Pour over the cucumber and onion slices. Cover and refrigerate at least two hours (1/2 day or over night is best) to season and blend the flavors.
