This recipe came from my nan so can be dated back to at least 1900, interestingly my husbands nan also made a version of this so it must be a traditional British Summer salad. Cooking time is actually chilling time.
Ingredients:
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1 mild onion, thinly sliced
1 cup hot water
1 cup white malt vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
salt
1 cup sugar
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except the cucumber and onion and stir until the sugar disolves.
2. Stir in cucumber and onion.
3. Chill for at least 5 hours or overnight.
