In a microwave-proof container, microwave the vinegar, water, and sugar on high for 2 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Slice the cucumbers and onion thinly, and add to a large container that has a lid.
Add the dill, sea salt, and celery seed.
Pour the cooled vinegar water solution over the top. Stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
Notes
Unpeeled cucumbers become tough. If you peel the cucumbers all the way, they get mushy. If using regular cucumbers peel a few strips off (will give a bitchin' striped effect) and it is perfect texture compromise.The brine (liquid) won't cover all the veggies completely. That's ok! Give it a stir after a few hours and you'll be good to go.
