I live in Texas and visited my brother and his wife in Illinois a couple of weeks ago, and we used this recipe. It turned out delicious, even though we cut the sugar and salt in half and only had white onions available for use. We added some diced sliced cherry tomatoes at the request of my sis in law. She preferred more sugar and salt, and my sister, who provide the cucumbers, prefers them to be pared. We used a half and half mix of cider vinegar and balsam vinegar. So we didn't exactly stick to the recipe as written, but we all enjoyed the cucumbers. I will definitely use it again.
