- Trim and discard the blossom ends of the cucumbers, then peel the onions and cut both into rounds about 1/4 inch thick. In a nonreactive bowl, toss them with the salt, then cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours. Drain well, rinse, drain again and then set the cucumbers and onions aside.

Steps:
- Put pickles and onions in a colander; stir in salt and top with ice. Let mixture sit for 3 hours.
- Combine vinegar, sugar, mustard seed, cloves, celery seed, and turmeric together in a large pot; bring to a boil. Cook and stir vinegar mixture until sugar is dissolved into syrup, about 10 minutes.
- Drain pickles and onions and add to syrup; bring to a boil and cook until onions are tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack pickles and syrup into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm cucumbers for the best results.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the cucumbers evenly, so they cook evenly.
- If you don't have pickling salt, you can use regular salt, but be sure to reduce the amount by half.
- Bring the vinegar mixture to a boil before pouring it over the cucumbers. This will help to kill any bacteria and prevent spoilage.
- Pack the cucumbers tightly into the jars, leaving 1 inch of headspace at the top.
- Seal the jars tightly and process them in a boiling water bath for the recommended amount of time. This will help to create a vacuum seal and preserve the pickles.
- Allow the pickles to cool completely before storing them in a cool, dark place.
