SUMMER CUCUMBER SALAD | |
This recipe begins with the selection of seeds in January. For this one, I chose H-19 Hybrid Arkansas little leaf cucumber and Walla Walla Sweet Onion. About 2 quarts of cucumber and onions sliced thin using a mandolin slicer. 1 1/2 cups water 1 cup of vinegar Tip: Try using different vinegars apple, red wine, or balsamic, either alone or in various mixtures. 1 cup olive oil 1 cup honey Fresh Garlic, grated, Dill, and Parsley, to taste My grandmother, first called on me to assist her in the preparation of this summer cucumber salad over 70 years ago. I have been making variations of it every year since. The amounts of cucumber and onions are not exact, because they vary according to the amounts available from the garden. You may also add occasional slices, or dices of tomato, pepper, green beans, snap pea, or carrot for color and taste. PREPARATION, Slice cucumber and onions using a mandolin slicer. MIX all other ingredients, stir, and let stand for a short while. POUR over veggies, and refrigerate and marinate. Don't worry about over marinating because, there will be sampling, almost immediately. Submitted by: Bob the gardener |
