List of Ingredients




1 tablespoon salt
1 long English cucumber, sliced very thin (do not use short green cucumbers)
6 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 Spanish onion, thinly sliced
8 tablespoons white vinegar
6 tablespoons water


Recipe



Slice cucumbers as thin as you can.
Arrange cucumber slices in a bowl in layers, salting between layers. Sprinkle the cukes with salt, don't over salt them.
Let stand 2 hours.
Rinse with cold water until no salt remains. Make sure you rinse salt out of cukes extremely well or the salty taste will stay.
Drain well and pat dry.
Thinly slice red onions and break apart rings.
In a separate bowl, mix sugar and oil, then add vinegar and water.
Add more sugar or vinegar if not sweet or sour enough.
It should have a nice tangy taste.
Add onions and cucumber to vinegar dressing.
Mix well.
Cover and refrigerate for a couple hours, stirring frequently to blend flavors.
