ITALIAN CUCUMBER SALAD 
2 cucumber, medium size
3 tbsp. vinegar
3 tbsp. water
1/2 tsp. sugar
3 tsp. oil
2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 clove garlic, minced (I use a whole garlic)

Wash and peel cucumber. Slice thinly into a bowl. Sprinkle salt and cucumber slices and set aside 1 hour. Meanwhile, mix together and set aside vinegar, water, sugar, oil, pepper, and garlic. Squeeze cucumber slices, a few at a time (discarding liquid) and put into a bowl. Pour vinegar mixture over cucumbers and toss lightly together. (Chill salad for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.)
