cucumbers

Here is Ruth's cucumber recipe. The beauty of it is its simplicity.
Peel a couple of cucumbers and slice into disks. Sprinkle very sparingly with a lttle salt and wine vinegar. Let soak in the refrigerator for about half an hour, then drain thoroughly. Put cucumber slices in a bowl with just enough sour cream to coat. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Don't use too much of the seasonings or soak for too long; you want the cucumbers to be crisp and flavorful. Use cucumbers from your garden if you have any.

Thanks-I'll try to get some more cucumbers tomorrow and give it a try.
 
Nana used to make cucumbers that way. Since both sour cream and vinegar are part of it, Ill pass. Cucumbers - sliced up or not - taste just fine.
