My mom just called it pickled cucumber salad . Grandma says it's German, Dad says its Polish, my Husband says it's Swedish. I just call it Old-World...
Ingredients:
5-6 large cucumbers, halved and thinly sliced
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 small onion, finely sliced, or minced
salt, to taste
white pepper, to taste
1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
Directions:
1. Halve the cucumbers, scoop out the seeds, and thinly slice. Put into a deep sealable bowl.
2. In a small sauce pan combine vinegar, sugar, water, onion, salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, stirring till sugar is dissolved.
3. Pour over cucumbers. Let cool.
4. Stir in dill and parsely, seal, and refrigerate overnight.
5. Note: I like to use sliced onion because it looks nicer with the cucumber halves, but some prefer it more finely chopped.
