Bring slowly to boiling point and boil 5 minutes

Drain the vegetables thoroughly in a colander, rinsing well with cold water. Add them to the hot syrup and heat slowly to just below boiling. Stir occasionally
You do not put these in a water bath, just put the cucumbers and liquid in the jar and seal. Make sure the top of the jar is clean.
