pickled cucumbers in a clay barrel

Boil a broth of water, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Rub the cucumbers under running water with a brush, then pierce them several times with a roulade pin (first lengthwise, then a few more times crosswise) and layer them halfway in the clay pot. Sprinkle half of each spice over the cucumbers and scatter half of the onion rings on top. Then add the next layer of cucumbers and top with the remaining spices and onions. If you like it spicy, you can add chili peppers! Now pour the hot broth over the cucumbers and place a plate on top to cover them. Let it rest, covered, overnight so the cucumbers are ready to enjoy the next day.
