1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. mustard seeds
1/4 tsp. celery seeds
1/4 tsp. turmeric

Mix all ingredients in a 2 quart microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high 7 to 8 minutes, stirring twice, until cucumber is crisp-tender and onion translucent. Ladle into glass jar (rinsed with hot water to prevent cracking). Cover. Cool slightly and refrigerate.
