Perfect for summertime-cool and refreshing. Important to use the freshest ingredients! From Domino Magazine, June 2006. Ingredients:
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar (regular or seasoned) |
1/2 cup superfine sugar |
1/2 cup fresh dill (not dried!) |
2 medium cucumbers, peeled and very thinly sliced (read *note) |
salt |
freshly crack black pepper |
Directions:
1. *NOTE: If the cucumbers are organic, or at least not waxed, peeling them is optional.
2. In a small saucepan on medium heat, warm the vinegar and sugar together until the sugar dissolves.
3. Set liquid aside to cool.
4. Chop the dill.
5. Slice the cucumber very thinly and arrange in layers on a shallow, non-reactive platter with sloped edges.
6. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and garnish with the fresh dill.
7. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers.
8. Let marinate at least 1 hour or overnight.
9. Yield is estimated.
