Cucumber , Onion & Vinegar Salad
Since everyone is talking about Vinegar, I have something that I enjoy and it was my Grandmothers recipe (German) and quite good plus simple to make.
(Even Swampy & Jack could make this) :wink:
1.....Take a good onion ( I like the Vidalias when in seasonand ) slice it thin ( 1/8th in or slightly larger )then cut those in half.
2.....Now grab a cucumber ( A med. size not a big one like Jack slays rabbits with) peal it and slice it thin ( Same size as the onion) then cut those in half.
At this time I put them in a zip lock bag and sprinkle some salt and black pepper in with them, close the bag (tight) and shake everything to mix them up.
The amount of Salt & Black Pepper is to taste but a lot is not needed ... I use just the right amount for me.... :? More pepper then salt. :wink:
3.....Take this mix and put it in a glass jar and pack it down just a little not real tight then fill it with distilled vinegar, cover and cool in the frig a couple of hours or longer.
4...... The Best Part .....Spoon out what you want with your meal and it will cool you down plus it goes good with beef, chicken or fish as a salad.
