Preparation steps

1.

Peel the cucumber, halve lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and cut into 2 cm cubes. Sprinkle with a bit of salt. Cover and let sit overnight in the refrigerator. 

2.

Peel the onion and cut into thin rings. In a pot, boil the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, mustard seeds and ginger. Simmer for 5-10 minutes, until the honey is dissolved. Simmer the cucumber and onion together in small batches for about 4 minutes, until they look slightly translucent. Pour the hot mixture into clean glasses. Close tightly. Turn the jars upside down for 5 minutes. Then turn and leave to cool. Let stand for a few weeks before consumption, to allow time to pickle.
