I think I will try it--how about over thin sliced fennel on a bed of Boston lettuce!! Re: Cucumber Salad - cjs - 08-16-2008 oh my, does sound good!! copied. I usually eat plain or just vinegar and water - nice change of pace. Re: Cucumber Salad - Lorraine - 08-16-2008 Thanks, Marye. I'm with Jean, cucumbers and vinegar are one of our favourites.

Marye Re: Cucumber Salad - Mare749 - 08-16-2008 Thanks Marye, this sounds good. Never used Japanese vinegar before. Will have to get some. Bet this dressing is good on shredded cabbage too. Re: Cucumber Salad - labradors - 08-16-2008 Since you all seem to like cucumbers so much (I only like them in a few things, and most of the time they bother my stomach, any way), here are a couple of other cucumber salad recipes you may enjoy. This first one is from a Hungarian cookbook, and matches what they used to serve at a Hungarian restaurant in Daytona Beach. Hungarian Cucumber Salad Uborka Salata (Serves 6) INGREDIENTS:
The second one is something my parents just had recently. My mom said it was very good, and that the seemingly unusual combination of ingredients actually worked very well together. Cucumber with Mint Vinaigrette Purée in Blender:
Notes:
Re: Cucumber Salad - cjs - 08-16-2008 Maryann, surely you've used rice vinegar..that's all it is. Re: Cucumber Salad - iBcookin - 08-16-2008 That was going to be my question. . . is it rice wine vinegar we are talking about? I did cucumbers with dill, salt and rice wine vinegar for myself the other day, thinking nobody else was going to eat them, and the family left nothing for me! Re: Cucumber Salad - mjkcooking - 08-16-2008 hi thought i would add the brand of Vinegar I use and buy from the Chinese Section at the grocery store is Marukan - genuine Brewed - greed lid it is all natural is is not a rice wine vinegar - that's is different The have usually two types of this at the store - always get the green lid not the yellow lid as it is sweetened there are different brands - just get the genuine brewed not the sweetened one. hope this helps.
