Vee's Cucumber and Onions

List of Ingredients




1-1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup distilled vinegar
Sliced cucumbers (1 or 2)
Sliced onions (1 or 2)

1. Put mayonnaise and vinegar in a jar with a lid and shake until blended. (OK, go ahead and use a hand mixer if you really want to!)

2. Pour over cucumbers and onions in a bowl.

4. Chill. The longer the onions are in the mixture, the sweeter they become.

5. Serve over fresh homegrown tomatoes.



Recipe



Now, this is what I've been wondering for years. Since everything that my mother cooked that was ESPECIALLY delicious was PA-Dutch, I'm wondering if this recipe is also. I have the feeling that the original
recipe called for just sour cream and that my mother substituted mayonnaise and vinegar instead.
