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.

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.
