2 c. sugar
2 c. water
2 c. vinegar
1/4 c. salt

Bring all of the above to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Place sliced cukes, onions and dill in a non-metal container. I use a gallon jar and the above is just enough for 1 gallon of pickles. Pour hot vinegar mixture over sliced cukes and store in refrigerator for 3 days before serving.
